I love that quotation and was blown away with pride the first time I read it, then I learned there was no proof he actually said it. Multiple schools claim the quote, which gives it a "this is my favorite class" sound.

"Dark and sad will be the hour to this nation when it forgets to pay grateful homage to its greatest benefactors. The offering we bring to-day is due alike to the patriot soldiers dead and their noble comrades who still live; for, whether living or dead, whether in time or eternity, the loyal soldiers who imperiled all for country and freedom are one and inseparable."
-- Frederick Douglass 1871
