(Joshua L. Chamberlain- letter to his mother)
"I believe in a destiny- one, i mean, divinely appointed, and to which we are carried forward by a perfect trust in God. I have laid plans, in my day, and good ones i thought. But they never succeeded. Something else, better ,did, and I could see it plain as day, that God had done it, and for my good.

So I am right, be sure of that, happen what may. Not for any merit of mine, but for divine and loving mercy all is bright with me, in this world and beyond."
