Abraham Lincoln
Legislation and adjudication must follow, and conform to, the progress of society.
Abraham Lincoln

But when I went to Gettysburg and saw the graves of thousands of our soldiers, I then and there consecrated myself to Christ.
Abraham Lincoln
Too many piglets not enough tits.
Abraham Lincoln
