More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
I think that one of the causes of these repeated failures is that our best and greatest men have greatly underestimated the size of this question (slavery). They have constantly brought forward small cures for great sores-plasters too small to cover the wound. That is one reason that all settlements have proved so temporary-so evanescent.
Abraham Lincoln
If you love something, set it free.
Abraham Lincoln
I dared not trust the case on the presumption that the court knows everything. In fact, I argued it on the presumption that the court didn't know anything.
Abraham Lincoln
I am for the people of the whole nation doing just as they please in all matters which concern the whole nation for that of each part doing just as they choose in all matters which concern no other part and for each individual doing just as he chooses in all matters which concern nobody else.
Abraham Lincoln
The best way to get rid of your enemies is to make them your friends.
Abraham Lincoln
I always remember the prayers of my mother as they always forever.
Abraham Lincoln
As President, I have no eyes but constitutional eyes I cannot see you.
Abraham Lincoln
Liquor may have its defenders, but it has no defense.
Abraham Lincoln
The money power preys on the nation in times of peace, and conspires against it in times of adversity. It is more despotic than monarchy, more insolent than autocracy, more selfish than bureaucracy. It denounces, as public enemies, all who question its methods or throw light upon its crimes.
Abraham Lincoln
I was losing interest in politics, when the repeal of the Missouri Compromise aroused me again. What I have done since then is pretty well known.
Abraham Lincoln
We all declare for liberty, but in using the same word we do not all mean the same thing.
Abraham Lincoln
You are green, it is true but they are green also. You are all green alike.
Abraham Lincoln
Towering genius distains a beaten path.
Abraham Lincoln
We can succeed only by concert. It is not 'can any of us imagine better?, but 'can we all do better?
Abraham Lincoln
At 50, if you are on a diet on your birthday, you can't eat a piece of your birthday cake. So grab two, a piece in each hand and, lo and behold, you will be on a balanced diet! Happy birthday, old chum!
Abraham Lincoln
Get books, sit yourself down anywhere, and go to reading them yourself.
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
Nothing is stronger than gentleness.
Abraham Lincoln
I see a very dark cloud on America's horizon, and that cloud is coming from Rome.
Abraham Lincoln
A man is about as happy as he makes up his mind to be.
Abraham Lincoln
