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
And upon this act [Emancipation Proclamation]...I invoke...the gracious favor of Almighty God.
Abraham Lincoln
The assertion that 'all men are created equal' was of no practical use in effecting our separation from Great Britain and it was placed in the Declaration not for that, but for future use.
Abraham Lincoln
My faith in the proposition that each man should do precisely as he pleases with all which is exclusively his own lies at the foundation of the sense of justice there is in me.
Abraham Lincoln
What has ever threatened our liberty and prosperity save and except this institution of Slavery?
Abraham Lincoln
Let no young man choosing the law for a calling for a moment yield to the popular belief -- resolve to be honest at all events and if in your own judgment you cannot be an honest lawyer, resolve to be honest without being a lawyer.
Abraham Lincoln
