Abraham Lincoln
Image
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

The unpleasant events you are passing from will not have been profitless to you.
Abraham Lincoln
Image
I have just read your dispatch about sore-tongued and fatigued horses, Will you pardon me for asking what the horses of your army have done since the Battle of Antietam that fatigues anything?
Abraham Lincoln
Image
A man watches his pear-tree day after day, impatient for the ripening of the fruit. Let him attempt to force the process, and he may spoil both fruit and tree. But let him patiently wait, and the ripe pear at length falls into his lap.
Abraham Lincoln
Image
I hope to stand firm enough to not go backward, and yet not go forward fast enough to wreck the country's cause.
Abraham Lincoln
Image
The working men are the basis of all governments, for the plain reason that they are the most numerous.
Abraham Lincoln
Image
In giving freedom to the slave, we assure freedom to the free.
Abraham Lincoln

One generation passeth away and another generation cometh, but the earth abideth forever.
