Abraham Lincoln
I believe this Government cannot endure, permanently half slave and half free.
Abraham Lincoln
Great distance in either time or space has wonderful power to lull and render quiescent the human mind.
Abraham Lincoln
The trouble with Hooker is that he's got his headquarters where his hindquarters aught to be.
Abraham Lincoln
It may be affirmed, without extravagance, that the free institutions we enjoy, have developed the powers, and improved the condition, of our whole people, beyond any example in the world.
Abraham Lincoln
The principles of Jefferson are the definitions and axioms of free society.
Abraham Lincoln
