“Where our union was saved by the immortal heroes at Gettysburg. Gettysburg, what an unbelievab­le battle that was, the battle of Gettysburg, what an unbelievab­le — I mean, it was so much and so interestin­g and so vicious and horrible and so beautiful in so many different ways. It represente­d such a big portion of the success of this country. Gettysburg, wow. I go to Gettysburg, Pennsylvan­ia, to look, and to watch, and the statement of Robert E. Lee — who’s no longer in favour, did you ever notice that? No longer in favour — ‘Never fight uphill, me boys. Never fight uphill.’ They were fighting uphill, he said, ‘Wow, that was a big mistake,’ he lost his great general and they were fighting — ‘Never fight uphill, me boys,’ but it was too late.”
