More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
Force is all conquering, but it's victories are short lived.
Abraham Lincoln
I am the President of the United States of America, clothed in immense power! You will procure me these votes.
Abraham Lincoln
Be sure you put your feet in the right place, then stand firm.
Abraham Lincoln
I never did ask more, nor ever was willing to accept less, than for all the States, and the people thereof, to take and hold their places, and their rights, in the Union, under the Constitution of the United States. For this alone have I felt authorized to struggle and I seek neither more nor less now.
Abraham Lincoln
We, on our side, are praying to Him to give us victory, because we believe we are right but those on the other side pray to Him, look for victory, believing they are right. What must He think of us?
Abraham Lincoln
The world shall know that I will keep my faith to friends and enemies, come what will.
Abraham Lincoln
Better give your path to a dog than be bitten by him in contesting for the right. Even killing the dog would not cure the bite
Abraham Lincoln
Your rights end where my nose begins.
Abraham Lincoln
A drop of honey catches more flies than a gallon of gall. So with men. If you would win a man to your cause, first convince him that you are his sincere friend. Therein is a drop of honey which catches his heart, which, say what he will, is the highroad to his reason.
Abraham Lincoln
I would rather be assassinated than see a single star removed from the American flag.
Abraham Lincoln
I expect to maintain this contest until successful, or till I die, or am conquered, or my term expires, or Congress or the country forsakes me.
Abraham Lincoln
You can have anything you want if you want it badly enough. You can be anything you want to be, do anything you set out to accomplish if you hold to that desire with singleness of purpose.
Abraham Lincoln
Men are not flattered by being shown that there has been a difference of purpose between the Almighty and them.
Abraham Lincoln
I cannot bring myself to believe that any human being lives who would do me any harm.
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
I shall adopt new views as fast as they shall appear to be true views.
Abraham Lincoln
There is an important sense in which government is distinctive from administration. One is perpetual, the other is temporary and changeable. A man may be loyal to his government and yet oppose the particular principles and methods of administration.
Abraham Lincoln
I think that if anything can be proved by natural theology, it is that slavery is morally wrong. God gave man a mouth to receive bread, hands to feed it, and his hand has a right to carry bread to his mouth without controversy.
Abraham Lincoln
To stand in silence when they should be protesting makes cowards of men.
Abraham Lincoln
Familiarize yourself with the chains of bondage and you prepare your own limbs to wear them.
Abraham Lincoln
