Andy9o8 2 #3 May 9, 2010 To this day I regard the Mexican war as one of the most unjust ever waged by a stronger against a weaker nation. It was an instance of a republic following the bad example of European monarchies, in not considering justice in their desire to acquire additional territory. ... I do not think there was ever a more wicked war… -Ulysses S. Grant, Memoirs We need immigration reform now. -Geronimo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd bet the Geronimo quote is a joke, though Wendy P.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it.

He wrote them out in longhand; then they were sent off to the printer, who set them in type. They were published shortly after his death. I don't think Geronimo was literate; but in any event, it was a pun on the OP. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
