More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
The judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.
Abraham Lincoln
Take all that you can of this book upon reason, and the balance on faith, and you will live and die a happier man. (When a skeptic expressed surprise to see him reading a Bible)
Abraham Lincoln
Any society that takes away from those most capable and gives to the least will perish.
Abraham Lincoln
Let us at all times remember that all American citizens are brothers of a common country, and should dwell together in bonds of fraternal feeling.
Abraham Lincoln
Tangible language, which often tells more falsehoods than truths.
Abraham Lincoln
Certainly there is no contending against the Will of God but still there is some difficulty in ascertaining, and applying it, to particular cases.
Abraham Lincoln
Let us renew our trust in god, and go forward without fear.
Abraham Lincoln
I shall not do more than I can, and I shall do all I can to save the government, which is my sworn duty as well as my personal inclination. I shall do nothing in malice. What I deal with is too vast for malicious dealing.
Abraham Lincoln
I know there is a God, and that He hates injustice and slavery. I see the storm coming, and I know that his hand is in it. If He has a place and work for me - and I think He has - I believe I am ready.
Abraham Lincoln
Our popular government has often been called an experiment. Two points in it our people have already settled, the successful establishing and the successful administering of it. One still remains, its successful maintenance against a formidable internal attempt to overthrow it.
Abraham Lincoln
We must believe that He permits it [this war] for some wise purpose of his own, mysterious and unknown to us and though with ourlimited understandings we may not be able to comprehend it, yet we cannot but believe, that he who made the world still governs it.
Abraham Lincoln
The president is the cube of ice one places in the pot of a houseplant, providing a steady amount of nourishment over the course of a hot day. A good description of the job and also a fantastic bit of practical household advice.
Abraham Lincoln
Ballots are the rightful and peaceful successors of bullets, and that when ballots have fairly and constitutionall y decided there can be no successful appeal back to bullets.
Abraham Lincoln
Nobody has ever expected me to be President. In my poor, lean, lank face, nobody has ever seen that any cabbages were sprouting out.
Abraham Lincoln
I fear you do not fully comprehend the danger of abridging the liberties of the people. Nothing but the sternest necessity can ever justify it. A government had better go to the extreme of toleration, than to do aught that could be construed into an interference with, or to jeopardize in any degree, the common rights of its citizens.
Abraham Lincoln
This country, with its institutions, belongs to the people who inhabit it.
Abraham Lincoln
I told myself, Lincoln, you can never make a lawyer if you do not understand what demonstrate means. So I left my situation in Springfield, went home to my father's house, and stayed there till I could give any proposition in the six books of Euclid at sight. I then found out what demonstrate means, and went back to my law studies.
Abraham Lincoln
We shall meanly lose or nobly save the last hope of earth.
Abraham Lincoln
On the whole, my impression is that mercy bears richer fruits than any other attribute.
Abraham Lincoln
Woe unto the world because of offenses for it must needs be that offenses come, but woe to that man by whom the offense cometh.
Abraham Lincoln
