Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln
My God! My God! What will the country say?
Abraham Lincoln
Let the people know the truth and the country is safe.
Abraham Lincoln
It is much easier to ride a horse in the direction it is going.
Abraham Lincoln
On the whole, my impression is that mercy bears richer fruits than any other attribute.
Abraham Lincoln
The greatest lessons I have every learned were at my mother's knees... All that I am, or hope to be, I owe to my angel mother.
Abraham Lincoln
My father taught me to work, but not to love it. I never did like to work, and I don't deny it. I'd rather read, tell stories, crack jokes, talk, laugh -- anything but work.
Abraham Lincoln
