List of voters for the quote

Lt. Thomas Chamberlain: Hello, men. What outfit you with? Confederate Prisoner: Archer's Brigade, Heth's Division. Lt. Thomas Chamberlain: Where you from? Confederate Prisoner: Tennessee. How 'bout you? Lt. Thomas Chamberlain: Maine. I never been to Tennessee. Confederate Prisoner: I reckon I never been to Maine neither. Lt. Thomas Chamberlain: I don't mean no disrespect to you fightin' men. But sometimes I can't help but figure, why you fightin' this war? Confederate Prisoner: Why you fightin' it? Lt. Thomas Chamberlain: Well, to free the slaves, of course. And to preserve the Union. Confederate Prisoner: I don't know about some other folk but I ain't fightin' for no darkies, one way or the other. I'm fightin' for my rights [pronounced "rats"]. All of us that's what we're fightin' for. Lt. Thomas Chamberlain: For your what? Confederate Prisoner: For our rights. Why is it you folks can't just live the way you want to live, and let us live the way we do? Live and let live, I hear some folks say. Be a mite less fuss and bother if more folks took it to heart. Lt. Thomas Chamberlain: [nods slowly, considering the man's words] Where'd you get captured? Confederate Prisoner: Railroad cut just west of Gettysburg town. Wasn't a pretty sight. Many a good boy lost a young and promising life. Some were blue, some were grey. Seen enough of this war? Lt. Thomas Chamberlain: I guess I have. Confederate Prisoner: I guess I have, too. It looks like I'm gonna be sittin' out the rest of it. Lt. Thomas Chamberlain: [nods] Well, I appreciate you talkin' to me. Confederate Prisoner: [salutes] See you in hell, Billy Yank. Lt. Thomas Chamberlain: [salutes] See you in hell, Johnny Reb.
