More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
In law it is good policy to never plead what you need not, lest you oblige yourself to prove what you can not.
Abraham Lincoln
Better to remain silent and thought a fool, than to speak out and confirm that you didn't do the assigned readings before the strategic planning retreat.
Abraham Lincoln
Have I not destroyed my enemy when I have made him into my friend?
Abraham Lincoln
Determine that the thing can and shall be done and then... find the way.
Abraham Lincoln
When I lay down the reins of this administration, I want to have one friend left. And that friend is myself.
Abraham Lincoln
Nowhere in the world is presented a government of so much liberty and equality. To the humblest and poorest amongst us are held out the highest privileges and positions. The present moment finds me at the White House, yet there is as good a chance for your children as there was for my father's.
Abraham Lincoln
A day spent helping no one but yourself is a day wasted.
Abraham Lincoln
Nothing in this world is impossible to a willing heart.

Now I confess myself as belonging to that class in the country who contemplate slavery as a moral, social and political evil.
Abraham Lincoln
I can make brigadier generals, but i can't make horses.
Abraham Lincoln
The Presidency, even to the most experienced politicians, is no bed of roses and [Zachary] Taylor like others, found thorns within it. No human being can fill that station and escape censure.
Abraham Lincoln
A husband and wife may be divorced and go out of the presence and beyond the reach of each other, but the different parts of our country can not do this. They can but remain face to face, and intercourse, either amicable or hostile, must continue between them.
Abraham Lincoln
I would rather be assassinated than see a single star removed from the American flag.
Abraham Lincoln
The Constitution is not a suicide pact.
Abraham Lincoln
I hold that while a man exists, it is his duty to improve not only his own condition, but to assist in ameliorating mankind.
Abraham Lincoln
You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot lift the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer.
Abraham Lincoln
All things desirable to men are contained in the Bible.
Abraham Lincoln
Everybody appreciates a compliment.
Abraham Lincoln
