More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
The philosophy of the school room in one generation will be the philosophy of government in the next.
Abraham Lincoln
Government, possessing the power to create and issue currency and credit as money and enjoying the right to withdraw both currency and credit from circulation by taxation and otherwise, need not and should not borrow capital at interest as a means of financing government work and public enterprises.
Abraham Lincoln
The matter of fees is important, far beyond the mere question of bread and butter involved. Properly attended to, fuller justice is done to both lawyer and client.
Abraham Lincoln
Discourage litigation. Persuade your neighbors to compromise whenever you can. As a peacemaker the lawyer has superior opportunity of being a good man. There will still be business enough.
Abraham Lincoln
As our case is new, so we must think anew, and act anew.
Abraham Lincoln
Trusting in Him, who can go with me, and remain with you and be every where for good, let us confidently hope that all will yet be well. To His care commending you, as I hope in your prayers you will commend me, I bid you an affectionate farewell.
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
I could write shorter sermons but when I get started I'm too lazy to stop
Abraham Lincoln
If we exchange one dollar, we both have one dollar each. But if we exchange one good thought, we both have two good thoughts
Abraham Lincoln
Almost every thing, especially of governmental policy, is an inseparable compound of the two [good and evil].
Abraham Lincoln
Every man is said to have his peculiar ambition. Whether it be true or not, I can say for one that I have no other so great as that of being truly esteemed of my fellow men, by rendering myself worthy of their esteem.
Abraham Lincoln
Every person is responsible for his own looks after 40.
Abraham Lincoln
If you are resolutely determined to make a lawyer of yourself, the thing is more than half done already.
Abraham Lincoln
Everybody appreciates a compliment.
Abraham Lincoln
The worst thing you can do for those you love is the things they could and should do themselves.
Abraham Lincoln
A friend is one who has the same enemies as you have.
Abraham Lincoln
We must work earnestly in the best light He gives us.
Abraham Lincoln
I think slavery is wrong, morally, and politically. I desire that it should be no further spread in these United States, and I should not object if it should gradually terminate in the whole Union.
Abraham Lincoln
Discipline is choosing between what you want now, and what you want most.
Abraham Lincoln
A fellow once came to me to ask for an appointment as a minister abroad. Finding he could not get that, he came down to some more modest position. Finally, he asked to be made a tide-waiter. When he saw he could not get that, he asked me for an old pair of trousers. It is sometimes well to be humble.
