Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln
There are no accidents in my philosophy. Every effect must have its cause. The past is the cause of the present, and the present will be the cause of the future. All these are links in the endless chain stretching from the finite to the infinite.
Abraham Lincoln
A universal feeling, whether well or ill founded, cannot be safely disregarded.
Abraham Lincoln
He who represents himself has a fool for a client
Abraham Lincoln
I have neither time nor disposition to enter into discussion with the Friend, and end this occasion by suggesting for her consideration the question whether, if it be true that the Lord has appointed me to do the work she has indicated, it is not probable that he would have communicated knowledge of the fact to me as well as to her.
Abraham Lincoln
Tangible language, which often tells more falsehoods than truths.
