Gen. Thomas Jonathan “Stonewall” Jackson was once asked about his incredible courage going into battle. He replied:

“Captain, my religious belief teaches me to feel as safe in battle as in bed. God has fixed the time for my death. I do not concern myself about that, but to always be ready, no matter when it may overtake me. Captain, that is the way all men should live, and then all would be equally brave.”
