More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
We should be too big to take offense and too noble to give it.
Abraham Lincoln
We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory will swell when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.
Abraham Lincoln
God must love the common man, he made so many of them.
Abraham Lincoln
With this honor devolves upon you also a corresponding responsibility. As the country herein trusts you, so under God it will sustain you.
Abraham Lincoln
Nothing is stronger than gentleness.
Abraham Lincoln
Public opinion in this country is everything.
Abraham Lincoln
There are few things wholly evil or wholly good. Almost everything, especially of government policy, is an inseparable compound of the two, so that our best judgment of the preponderance between them is continually demanded.
Abraham Lincoln
I see a very dark cloud on America's horizon, and that cloud is coming from Rome.
Abraham Lincoln
The working men are the basis of all governments, for the plain reason that they are the most numerous.
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
Thus let bygones be bygones. Let past differences, as nothing be.
Abraham Lincoln
I certainly know that if the war fails, the administration fails, and that I will be blamed for it, whether I deserve it or not. And I ought to be blamed, if I could do better. You think I could do better therefore you blame me already. I think I could not do better therefore I blame you for blaming me.
Abraham Lincoln
There is an important sense in which government is distinctive from administration. One is perpetual, the other is temporary and changeable. A man may be loyal to his government and yet oppose the particular principles and methods of administration.
Abraham Lincoln
The privilege of creating and issuing money is not only the supreme prerogative of government, but it is the government's greatest creative opportunity.
Abraham Lincoln
I will either be America's greatest president or its last.
Abraham Lincoln
To ease another’s heartache is to forget one’s own.
Abraham Lincoln
Force is all conquering, but it's victories are short lived.
Abraham Lincoln
We trust, sir, that God is on our side. It is more important to know that we are on God's side.
Abraham Lincoln
I always [or often] walk slowly, but I never walk backwards.
Abraham Lincoln
A man has not the time to spend half his life in quarrels. If any man ceases to attack me, I never remember the past against him.
Abraham Lincoln
