More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
How many times have I laughed at you telling me plainly that I was too lazy to be anything but a lawyer.
Abraham Lincoln
you can't escape tomorrow's responsibilities by evading it today
Abraham Lincoln
Never stir up litigation. A worse man can scarcely be found than one who does this.
Abraham Lincoln
Slavery is founded in the selfishness of man's nature - opposition to it is his love of justice. These principles are an eternal antagonism and when brought into collision so fiercely, as slavery extension brings them, shocks and throes and convulsions must ceaselessly follow.
Abraham Lincoln
Think of strangers as friends you not met yet.
Abraham Lincoln
I have simply tried to do what seemed best each day, as each day came.
Abraham Lincoln
Marriage is neither heaven nor hell, it is simply purgatory.
Abraham Lincoln
When Judge Douglas says that whoever, or whatever community, wants slaves, they have a right to have them, he is perfectly logical if there is nothing wrong in the institution but if you admit that it is wrong, he cannot logically say that anybody has a right to do wrong.
Abraham Lincoln
Military necessity does not admit of cruelty - that is, the infliction of suffering for the sake of suffering or for revenge, . . . nor of torture to extort confessions.
Abraham Lincoln
Let all Americans - let all lovers of liberty everywhere - join in the great and good work. If we do this, we shall not only have saved the Union but we shall have so saved it, as to make, and to keep it, forever worthy of the saving.
Abraham Lincoln
Take all that you can of this book upon reason, and the balance on faith, and you will live and die a happier man. (When a skeptic expressed surprise to see him reading a Bible)
Abraham Lincoln
I would like to speak in terms of praise due to the many brave officers and soldiers who have fought in the cause of the war.
Abraham Lincoln
You know you've reached middle age when all you exercise is caution
Abraham Lincoln
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot establish sound security on borrowed money. You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than you earn.
Abraham Lincoln
Now I confess myself as belonging to that class in the country who contemplate slavery as a moral, social and political evil.
Abraham Lincoln
Gold is good in its place, but living, brave, patriotic men are better than gold.
Abraham Lincoln
I am not a very sentimental man and the best sentiment I can think of is, that if you collect the signatures of all persons who are no less distinguished than I, you will have a very undistinguishing mass of names.
Abraham Lincoln
In this sad world of ours, sorrow comes to all, and it comes with bitter agony. Perfect relief is not possible, except with the passing of time.
Abraham Lincoln
The ballot is stronger than the bullet.
Abraham Lincoln
That some achieve great success, is proof to all that others can achieve it as well.
Abraham Lincoln
