Quotes by Col. Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain
“This is free ground. All the way from here to the Pacific Ocean. No man has to bow. No man born to royalty. Here we judge you by what you do, not by what your father was. Here you can be something. Here’s a place to build a home. . . It’s the idea that we all have value, you and me . . .”
– Col. Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain
