More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
A day spent helping no one but yourself is a day wasted.
Abraham Lincoln
Familiarize yourselves with the chains of bondage and you prepare your own limbs to wear them. Accustomed to trample on the rights of others, you have lost the genius of your own independence and become the fit subjects of the first cunning tyrant who rises among you.
Abraham Lincoln
Our attitude is more honest and more consistent than our words.
Abraham Lincoln
Our common country is in great peril, demanding the loftiest views, and boldest action to bring it speedy relief. Once relieved, its form of government is saved to the world its beloved history, and cherished memories, are vindicated and its happy future fully assured, and rendered inconceivably grand.
Abraham Lincoln
Will springs from the two elements of moral sense and self-interest.
Abraham Lincoln
It is your business to rise up and preserve the Union and liberty, for yourselves, and not for me. I desire they shall be constitutionally preserved.
Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln
If you understand what you're doing, you're not learning anything.
Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln
There may sometimes be ungenerous attempts to keep a young man down and they will succeed too, if he allows his mind to be diverted from its true channel to brood over the attempted injury. Cast about, and see if this feeling has not injured every person you have ever known to fall into it.
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
What is conservatism? Is it not the adherence to the old and tried against the new and untried?
Abraham Lincoln
I cannot imagine anyone looking at the sky and denying God.
Abraham Lincoln
In the early days of the world, the Almighty said to the first of our race In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread and since then, if we except the light and the air of heaven, no good thing has been, or can be enjoyed by us, without having first cost labour.
Abraham Lincoln
I believe the Bible is the best gift God has ever given to man. All the good from The Savior of the world is communicated to us through this Book.
Abraham Lincoln
I think I stand where that man stands.
Abraham Lincoln
I sincerely wish war was a pleasanter and easier business than it is, but it does not admit of holidays.
Abraham Lincoln
Weakness is what keeps driving us to God, by the overwhelming conviction that there just isn't anywhere else to go.
Abraham Lincoln
I couldn't be two faced. If I had two faces, I wouldn't wear this one.
Abraham Lincoln
If this country is ever demoralized, it will come from trying to live without work.
Abraham Lincoln
