More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
Think of strangers as friends you not met yet.
Abraham Lincoln
With high hope for the future, no prediction is ventured.
Abraham Lincoln
And whereas it is the duty of nations as well as of men, to own their dependence upon the overruling power of God ... and to recognize the sublime truth, announced in the Holy Scriptures and proven by all history, that those nations only are blessed whose God is the Lord.
Abraham Lincoln
We trust, sir, that God is on our side. It is more important to know that we are on God's side.
Abraham Lincoln
And you are entirely free from head-ache? That is good -- good -- considering it is the first spring you have been free from it since we were acquainted. I am afraid you will get so well, and fat, and young, as to be wanting to marry again.
Abraham Lincoln
The legitimate object of government is to do for a community of people whatever they need to have done, but can not do at all, or can not so well do, for themselves – in their separate, and individual capacities.
Abraham Lincoln
Nowhere in the world is presented a government of so much liberty and equality. To the humblest and poorest amongst us are held out the highest privileges and positions. The present moment finds me at the White House, yet there is as good a chance for your children as there was for my father's.
Abraham Lincoln
People are just as happy as they choose to be.
Abraham Lincoln
Whatever уоu are, bе а good one.
Abraham Lincoln
The mystic chords of memory, stretching from every battle-field, and patriot grave, to every living heart and hearth-stone, all over this broad land, will yet swell the chorus of the Union, when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature. --as quoted in THE RIVER OF WINGED DREAMS
Abraham Lincoln
Well, I suppose you know that men will stand a good deal when they are flattered.
Abraham Lincoln
We must believe that He permits it [this war] for some wise purpose of his own, mysterious and unknown to us and though with ourlimited understandings we may not be able to comprehend it, yet we cannot but believe, that he who made the world still governs it.
Abraham Lincoln
We cannot but believe that He who made the world still governs it.
Abraham Lincoln
If I were two-faced, would I be wearing this one?
Abraham Lincoln
Never let your correspondence fall behind.
Abraham Lincoln
Many free countries have lost their liberty, and ours may lose hers but, if she shall, be it my proudest plume, not that I was the last to desert, but that I never deserted her.
Abraham Lincoln
There is another old poet whose name I do not now remember who said, 'Truth is the daughter of Time.'
Abraham Lincoln
Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be.
Abraham Lincoln
I shall always think of myself first and foremost... as a hunter.
Abraham Lincoln
We find ourselves under the government of a system of political institutions, conducing more essentially to the ends of civil and religious liberty, than any of which the history of former times tells us.
Abraham Lincoln
