More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
Politics, as a trade, finds most and leaves nearly all dishonest.
Abraham Lincoln
As long as the Almighty permitted intelligent men, created in his image and likeness, to fight in public and kill each other while the world looks on approvingly, it's not for me to deprive the chickens of the same privilege.
Abraham Lincoln
With the fearful strain that is on me night and day, if I did not laugh I should die.
Abraham Lincoln
It often requires more courage to dare to do right than to fear to do wrong.
Abraham Lincoln
I am always for the man who wishes to work.
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
Were it not for my little jokes, I could not bear the burdens of this office.
Abraham Lincoln
The world is agreed that labor is the source from which human wants are mainly supplied. There is no dispute upon this point.
Abraham Lincoln
That we we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain - that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom - and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
Abraham Lincoln
If at any time all labour should cease, and all existing provisions be equally divided among the people, at the end of a single year there could scarcely be one human being left alive--all would have perished by want of subsistence.
Abraham Lincoln
Hypocrite: The man who murdered his parents, and then pleaded for mercy on the grounds that he was an orphan.
Abraham Lincoln
When I hear a man preach, I like to see him act as if he were fighting bees.
Abraham Lincoln
Take all that you can of this book upon reason, and the balance on faith, and you will live and die a happier man. (When a skeptic expressed surprise to see him reading a Bible)
Abraham Lincoln
A nation that does not honor its heroes will not long endure.
Abraham Lincoln
It is not merely for to-day, but for all time to come that we should perpetuate for our children's children this great and free government, which we have enjoyed all our lives.
Abraham Lincoln
What is conservatism? Is it not the adherence to the old and tried against the new and untried?
Abraham Lincoln
No man has a good enough memory to be a successful liar.
Abraham Lincoln
if you want your name to be remembered after your death either do something worth writing or write some thing worth reading
Abraham Lincoln
Well, I wish some of you would tell me the brand of whiskey that Grant drinks. I would like to send a barrel of it to my other generals.
Abraham Lincoln
Teach the children so it will not be necessary to teach the adults.
Abraham Lincoln
