We must free the slaves or be ourselves subdued.
Abraham Lincoln
If I care to listen to every criticism, let alone act on them, then this shop may as well be closed for all other businesses.

Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln
It has long been recognized that the problems with alcohol relate not to the use of a bad thing, but to the abuse of a good thing.
Abraham Lincoln
Capital has its rights, which are as worthy of protection as any other right.
Abraham Lincoln
Public opinion in this country is everything.
Abraham Lincoln
I care not much for a man's religion whose dog and cat are not the better for it.

It behooves us then to humble ourselves before the offended Power to confess our national sins and to pray for clemency and forgiveness.
Abraham Lincoln
Stand with anybody that stands right, stand with him while he is right and part with him when he goes wrong.

If there is a worse place than Hell, I am in it.
