Quote
“- Capt. James Power Smith: General Jackson, how is it you remain so calm in the midst of battle?
- Gen. Stonewall Jackson: Mr. Smith, my religious faith teaches me that God has already fixed the time of my death; therefore, I think not of it. I am as calm in battle as I would be in my own parlor. God will come for me in his own time.”
