Major General John M. Schofield's graduation address to the graduating class of 1879 at West Point is as follows: The disci
pline which makes the soldiers of a free country reliable in battle is not to be gained by harsh or tyrannical treatment.On
the contrary, such treatment is far more likely to destroy than to make an army.It is possible to impart instruction and g
ive commands in such a manner and such a tone of voice as to inspire in the soldier no feeling butan intense desire to obey
, while the opposite manner and tone of voice cannot fail to excite strong resentment and a desire to disobey.The one mode
or other of dealing with subordinates springs from a corresponding spirit in the breast of the commander.He who feels the r
espect which is due to others, cannot fail to inspire in them respect for himself, while he who feels,and hence manifests d
isrespect towards others, especially his subordinates, cannot fail to inspire hatred against himself.
