More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
Sending armies to McClellan is like shoveling fleas across a barnyard, not half of them get there.
Abraham Lincoln
All that serves labor serves the Nation. All ^ that harms labor is treason to America. No line can be drawn between these two. If any man tells you he loves America, yet hates labor, he is a liar. If any man tells you he trusts America, yet fears labor, he is a fool. There is no America without labor, and to fleece the one is to rob the other.

Abraham Lincoln
If at any time all labour should cease, and all existing provisions be equally divided among the people, at the end of a single year there could scarcely be one human being left alive--all would have perished by want of subsistence.
Abraham Lincoln
Discourage litigation. Persuade your neighbors to compromise whenever you can.
