Abraham Lincoln
Anybody will do for you, but not for me.

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
If by the mere force of numbers a majority should deprive a minority of any clearly written constitutional right, it might, in a moral point of view, justify revolution.
Abraham Lincoln
If all do not join now to save the good old ship of the Union this voyage nobody will have a chance to pilot her on another voyage.
Abraham Lincoln
I have endured a great deal of ridicule without much malice and have received a great deal of kindness, not quite free from ridicule. I am used to it.
Abraham Lincoln
