“Anybody know what this place is? This is Gettysburg. This is where they fought the Battle of Gettysburg. Fifty thousand men died right here – in this field – fighting the same fight that we’re still fighting amongst ourselves today. This green field right here: painted red, bubbling with the blood of young boys; smoke and hot lead tore right through their bodies. Listen to their souls, men: ‘I killed my brother, with malice in my heart. Hatred destroyed my family.’ You listen and take a lesson from the dead: if we don’t come together, right now on this hallowed ground, we too will be destroyed – just like they were. I don’t care if you like each other, but you will respect each other; and maybe – I don’t know, maybe – we’ll learn to play the game like men.”
