If the negro is a man, why then my ancient faith teaches me that ‘all men are created equal,' and that there can be no moral right in connection with one man's making a slave of another.
Abraham Lincoln
Labor is the true standard of value.
Abraham Lincoln
Any people anywhere, being inclined and having the power, have the right to rise up, and shake off the existing government, and form a new one that suits them better. This is a most valuable - a most sacred right - a right, which we hope and believe, is to liberate the world.
Abraham Lincoln
Laughter can be used to sooth the mind and get rid of those awful thoughts.
Abraham Lincoln
I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true.
Abraham Lincoln
The strength of a nation lies in the homes of its people.
Abraham Lincoln
The time has come when I am for everybody fighting the rebels. Let Indians fight them let the Negroes fight them and if you have got any strong-legged jackasses in Iwoa that can kick rebels to death, they have my hearty consent.
Abraham Lincoln
I hear you have abolitionists here. We have a few in Illinois, but we shot one the other day.
Abraham Lincoln
I couldn't be two faced. If I had two faces, I wouldn't wear this one.
Abraham Lincoln
Too many piglets not enough tits.
Abraham Lincoln
I want in all cases to do right.
Abraham Lincoln
That our government should have been maintained in its original form from its establishment until now, is not much to be wondered at. It had many props to support it through that period, which now are decayed, and crumbled away. Through that period, it was felt by all, to be an undecided experiment now, it is understood to be a successful one.
Abraham Lincoln
I am busily engaged in study of the Bible.
Abraham Lincoln
the better angels of our nature
Abraham Lincoln
The shepherd drives the wolf from the sheep's for which the sheep thanks the shepherd as his liberator, while the wolf denounces him for the same act as the destroyer of liberty. Plainly, the sheep and the wolf are not agreed upon a definition of liberty.
Abraham Lincoln
Freedom is the last, best hope of earth.
Abraham Lincoln
If this country is ever demoralized, it will come from trying to live without work.
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
I could not sleep when I got on the hunt for an idea, until I had caught it. This was a kind of passion with me, and it has stuck with me.
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
