More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
I do not deny the possibility that the people may err in an election but if they do, the true [cure] is in the next election, and not in the treachery of the person elected.
Abraham Lincoln
The purposes of the Almighty are perfect, and must prevail, though we erring mortals may fail to accurately perceive them in advance.
Abraham Lincoln
Prohibition... goes beyond the bounds of reason in that it attempts to control a man's appetite by legislation and makes a crime out of things that are not crimes... A prohibition law strikes a blow at the very principles upon which our government was founded.
Abraham Lincoln
Being President is like the man who was tarred and feathered and ridden out of town on a rail... A man in the crowd asked how he liked it, and his reply was that if it wasn't for the honor of the thing, he would much rather walk.
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
We better know there is a fire whence we see much smoke rising than we could know it by one or two witnesses swearing to it. The witnesses may commit perjury, but the smoke cannot.
Abraham Lincoln
Things may come to those who wait, but only the things left by those who hustle.
Abraham Lincoln
Never change horses in midstream.
Abraham Lincoln
Surely He intends some great good to follow this mighty convulsion which no mortal could make, and no mortal could stay.
Abraham Lincoln
I hear you have abolitionists here. We have a few in Illinois, but we shot one the other day.
Abraham Lincoln
Why don't you laugh? If I did not laugh I should die, and you need this medicine as much as I do.
Abraham Lincoln
Congressmen who willfully take action during wartime that damages morale and undermine the military are saboteurs and should be arrested, exiled, or hung
Abraham Lincoln
Work, work, work, is the main thing.
Abraham Lincoln
Honor is better than honors.
Abraham Lincoln
The Presidency, even to the most experienced politicians, is no bed of roses and [Zachary] Taylor like others, found thorns within it. No human being can fill that station and escape censure.
Abraham Lincoln
Whatever spiteful fools may say, Each jealous ranting yelper, No woman ever went astray, Without a man to help her
Abraham Lincoln
Never do anything for anyone who can just as well do it themself
Abraham Lincoln
And while it has not pleased the Almighty to bless us with a return of peace, we can but press on, guided by the best light He gives, trusting that in His own good time, and wise way, all will yet be well.
Abraham Lincoln
While we are grateful to all the brave men and officers for the events of the past few days, we should, above all, be very grateful to Almighty God, who gives us victory.
Abraham Lincoln
Every one desires to live long, but no one would be old.
Abraham Lincoln
