More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
Don't pray that God's on our side, pray that we're on his side.
Abraham Lincoln
How many legs does a dog have if you call the tail a leg? Four. Calling a tail a leg doesn't make it a leg.
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
I see a very dark cloud on America's horizon, and that cloud is coming from Rome.
Abraham Lincoln
It's bad. It's damned bad.
Abraham Lincoln
You dislike the emancipation proclamation and, perhaps, would have it retracted. You say it is unconstitutional - I think differently.
Abraham Lincoln
Nowhere in the world is presented a government of so much liberty and equality. To the humblest and poorest amongst us are held out the highest privileges and positions. The present moment finds me at the White House, yet there is as good a chance for your children as there was for my father's.
Abraham Lincoln
The person who is incapable of making a mistake, is incapable of anything.
Abraham Lincoln
I shall be most happy indeed if I shall be an humble instrument in the hands of the Almighty, and of this his almost chosen people.
Abraham Lincoln
Women are the only people I am afraid of who I never thought would hurt me
Abraham Lincoln
The slave-breeders and slave-traders, are a small, odious and detested class, among you and yet in politics, they dictate the course of all of you, and are as completely your masters, as you are the master of your own negroes.
Abraham Lincoln
The severest justice may not always be the best policy
Abraham Lincoln
My Best Friend is a person who will give me a book I have not read.
Abraham Lincoln
The written word may be man's greatest invention. It allows us to converse with the dead, the absent, and the unborn.
Abraham Lincoln
The good old maxims of the Bible are applicable, and truly applicable to human affairs, and in this as in other things, we may say here that he who is not for us is against us he would gathereth not with us scattereth.
Abraham Lincoln
if you want your name to be remembered after your death either do something worth writing or write some thing worth reading
Abraham Lincoln
Don't kneel to me, that is not right. You must kneel to God only, and thank Him for the liberty you will hereafter enjoy.
Abraham Lincoln
The strength of a nation lies in the homes of its people.
Abraham Lincoln
I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live up to the light I have. I must stand with anybody that stands right - stand with him while he is right and part with him when he goes wrong.
Abraham Lincoln
You cannot build character and courage by taking away people's initiative and independence. You cannot help people permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves.
Abraham Lincoln
