Dear Atlanta,

I'm coming to burn your shit down in a few weeks. I suggest you GTFO. I would rather not do it, but you know how it is. No hard feelings.

Sincerely,
General Sherman

"[i]f I had made up my mind to burn Columbia I would have burnt it with no more feeling than I would a common prairie dog village; but I did not do it".

  • Sherman on a town he did NOT order to be burned (but was burned by accident anyway)
