More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
I can make a General in five minutes but a good horse is hard to replace.
Abraham Lincoln
Anybody will do for you, but not for me.
Abraham Lincoln
Great men are ordinary men with extra ordinary determination.
Abraham Lincoln
If it were not for my firm belief in an overruling Providence, it would be difficult for me, in the midst of such complications of affairs, to keep my reason on its seat. But I am confident that the Almighty has His plans, and will work them out and, whether we see it or not, they will be the best for us.
Abraham Lincoln
As a peacemaker the lawyer has superior opportunity of being a good man.
Abraham Lincoln
Freedom is the last, best hope of earth.
Abraham Lincoln
In regards to this great Book [the Bible], I have but to say it is the best gift God has given to man. All the good the Savior gave to the world was communicated through this Book. But for it we could not know right from wrong. All things most desirable for man's welfare, here and hereafter, are found portrayed in it.
Abraham Lincoln
Nations do not die from invasion they die from internal rottenness.
Abraham Lincoln
I could not sleep when I got on the hunt for an idea, until I had caught it. This was a kind of passion with me, and it has stuck with me.
Abraham Lincoln
Teach the children so it will not be necessary to teach the adults.
Abraham Lincoln
Must a government be too strong for the liberties of its people or too weak to maintain its own existence?
Abraham Lincoln
Submitted to the Sec. of War. On principle I dislike an oath which requires a man to swear he has not done wrong. It rejects the Christian principle of forgiveness on terms of repentance. I think it is enough if the man does no wrong hereafter.
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 believe the Bible is the best gift God has ever given to man. All the good from The Savior of the world is communicated to us through this Book.
Abraham Lincoln
The political horizon looks dark and lowering but the people, under Providence, will set all right.
Abraham Lincoln
If this country is ever demoralized, it will come from trying to live without work.
Abraham Lincoln
Upon the subject of education, not presuming to dictate any plan or system respecting it, I can only say that I view it as the most important subject which we as a people can be engaged in.
Abraham Lincoln
By all means, don't say, if I can, say I will.
Abraham Lincoln
I am in favor of animal rights as well as human rights. That is the way of a whole human being.
Abraham Lincoln
A woman is the only thing I am afraid of that I know will not hurt me.
Abraham Lincoln
