Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln
Image
I will say, then, that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races: that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people.
Abraham Lincoln
Image
Gold is good in its place, but living, brave, patriotic men are better than gold.
Abraham Lincoln
Image
Free labor has the inspiration of hope pure slavery has no hope.
