In an address before the Southern Historical Society in Atlanta, Georgia in 1874, Benjamin Harvey Hill described Lee as:

.a foe without hate; a friend without treachery; a soldier without cruelty; a victor without oppression, and a victim without murmuring. He was a public officer without vices; a private citizen without wrong; a neighbour without reproach; a Christian without hypocrisy, and a man without guile. He was a Caesar, without his ambition; Frederick, without his tyranny; Napoleon, without his selfishness, and Washington, without his reward.

Robert E. Lee was the epitome of integrity, honor, loyalty, compassion and grace. He is one of if not the finest examples of a true humanitarian and as a born Yankee that learned nothing but lies growing up, I am proud to follow his example and truly grateful to have learned the truth in my lifetime. ~Drew Bulecza of WWW.TWSSH.COM
