More quotes by Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln
That some achieve great success, is proof to all that others can achieve it as well.
Abraham Lincoln
Familiarize yourself with the chains of bondage and you prepare your own limbs to wear them.
Abraham Lincoln
If we cannot give freedom to every creature, let us do nothing that will impose slavery upon any other creature.
Abraham Lincoln
Whatever уоu are, bе а good one.
Abraham Lincoln
I hope it will not be irreverent in me to say, that if it be probable that God would reveal his will to others, on a point so connected with my duty, it might be supposed he would reveal it directly to me
Abraham Lincoln
We think slavery a great moral wrong, and while we do not claim the right to touch it where it exists, we wish to treat it as a wrong in the territories, where our votes will reach it.
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
Most people are as happy as they want to be.
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
Public sentiment is everything. With public sentiment, nothing can fail. Without it, nothing can succeed.
Abraham Lincoln
If you have never failed you have never lived.
Abraham Lincoln
I am an optimist because I don't see the point in being anything else.
Abraham Lincoln
And whereas it is the duty of nations as well as of men, to own their dependence upon the overruling power of God ... and to recognize the sublime truth, announced in the Holy Scriptures and proven by all history, that those nations only are blessed whose God is the Lord.
Abraham Lincoln
The money power preys on the nation in times of peace, and conspires against it in times of adversity. It is more despotic than monarchy, more insolent than autocracy, more selfish than bureaucracy. It denounces, as public enemies, all who question its methods or throw light upon its crimes.
Abraham Lincoln
One company can serve some of your needs all of the time, or all of your needs some of the time, but never both.
Abraham Lincoln
The time comes upon every public man when it is best for him to keep his lips closed.
Abraham Lincoln
The negative principle that no law is free law, is not much known except among lawyers.
Abraham Lincoln
If all men were just, there still would be some, though not so much, need of government.
Abraham Lincoln
The strongest bond of human sympathy outside the family relation should be one uniting working people of all nations and tongues and kindreds.
Abraham Lincoln
