Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln
Labor is the great source from which nearly all, if not all, human comforts and necessities are drawn.
Abraham Lincoln
Knavery and flattery are blood relations.
Abraham Lincoln
Submitted to the Sec. of War. On principle I dislike an oath which requires a man to swear he has not done wrong. It rejects the Christian principle of forgiveness on terms of repentance. I think it is enough if the man does no wrong hereafter.
Abraham Lincoln
The solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom.
Abraham Lincoln
Liquor may have its defenders, but it has no defense.
