Abraham Lincoln
A long visit to a friend is often a great bore. Never make people twice glad.

Abraham Lincoln
Let reverence for the laws . . . become the political religion of the nation.
Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln
When the conduct of men is designed to be influenced, persuasion, kind, unassuming persuasion, should ever be adopted. It is an old and a true maxim, that 'a drop of honey catches more flies than a gallon of gall.'
Abraham Lincoln
Let us strive on to finish the work we are in.
Abraham Lincoln
The Union, and the Constitution, are the picture of silver, subsequently framed around it. The picture was not made to conceal or destroy the apple, but to adorn and preserve it. The picture was made for the apple-not the apple for the picture.
Abraham Lincoln
You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today.
Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln
Woe unto the world because of offenses for it must needs be that offenses come, but woe to that man by whom the offense cometh.
Abraham Lincoln
If any personal description of me is thought desirable, it may be said, I am, in height, six feet, four inches, nearly lean in flesh, weighing on an average one hundred and eighty pounds dark complexion, with coarse black hair, and grey eyes -- no other marks or brands recollected.
Abraham Lincoln
What is to be, will be, and no prayers of ours can arrest the decree.
Abraham Lincoln
I think that if anything can be proved by natural theology, it is that slavery is morally wrong. God gave man a mouth to receive bread, hands to feed it, and his hand has a right to carry bread to his mouth without controversy.
Abraham Lincoln
I know that the Lord is always on the side of the right. But it is my constant anxiety and prayer that I and this nation should be on the Lord's side.
