More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
Almost every thing, especially of governmental policy, is an inseparable compound of the two [good and evil].
Abraham Lincoln
All things desirable to men are contained in the Bible.
Abraham Lincoln
I have always thought that all men should be free but if any should be slaves, it should be first those who desire for themselves, and secondly those who desire it for others. Whenever I hear anyone arguing for slavery, I feel a strong impulse to see it tried on him personally.
Abraham Lincoln
The legitimate object of government is to do for a community of people whatever they need to have done, but can not do at all, or can not so well do, for themselves – in their separate, and individual capacities.
Abraham Lincoln
Free labor has the inspiration of hope pure slavery has no hope.
Abraham Lincoln
Great men are ordinary men with extra ordinary determination.
Abraham Lincoln
Never do anything for anyone who can just as well do it themself
Abraham Lincoln
If there is anything that links the human to the divine, it is the courage to stand by a principle when everybody else rejects it.
Abraham Lincoln
Submitted to the Sec. of War. On principle I dislike an oath which requires a man to swear he has not done wrong. It rejects the Christian principle of forgiveness on terms of repentance. I think it is enough if the man does no wrong hereafter.
Abraham Lincoln
I think I stand where that man stands.
Abraham Lincoln
The surest way to reveal one's character is not through adversity but by giving them power.
Abraham Lincoln
Well, I suppose you know that men will stand a good deal when they are flattered.
Abraham Lincoln
The land-grant university system is being built on behalf of the people, who have invested in these public universities their hopes, their support, and their confidence.
Abraham Lincoln
Legislation and adjudication must follow, and conform to, the progress of society.
Abraham Lincoln
I know that the Lord is always on the side of the right. But it is my constant anxiety and prayer that I and this nation should be on the Lord's side.
Abraham Lincoln
You can not fail in any laudable object, unless you allow your mind to be improperly directed.
Abraham Lincoln
A nation that does not honor its heroes will not long endure.
Abraham Lincoln
Certainly there is no contending against the Will of God but still there is some difficulty in ascertaining, and applying it, to particular cases.
Abraham Lincoln
We meet this evening, not in sorrow, but in gladness of heart.
Abraham Lincoln
Love is the chain whereby to bind a child to its parents.
Abraham Lincoln
