The surest way to reveal one's character is not through adversity but by giving them power.
Abraham Lincoln
Image
If we could first know where we are, and whither we are tending, we could then better judge what to do, and how to do it.
Abraham Lincoln
Image
The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew and act anew.
Abraham Lincoln
Image
Nothing in this world is impossible to a willing heart.
Abraham Lincoln

The unpleasant events you are passing from will not have been profitless to you.
Abraham Lincoln

I certainly know that if the war fails, the administration fails, and that I will be blamed for it, whether I deserve it or not. And I ought to be blamed, if I could do better. You think I could do better therefore you blame me already. I think I could not do better therefore I blame you for blaming me.

Abraham Lincoln
Image
I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts.
Abraham Lincoln

Honor to the soldier and sailor everywhere, who bravely bears his country's cause. Honor, also, to the citizen who cares for his brother in the field and serves, as he best can, the same cause.
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.

Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves.
Abraham Lincoln
Image
It is to deny, what the history of the world tells us is true, to suppose that men of ambition and talents will not continue to spring up amongst us. And, when they do, they will as naturally seek the gratification of their ruling passion, as others have so done before them.
Abraham Lincoln
Image
Towering genius disdains a beaten path ... It scorns to tread in the footsteps of any predecessor, however illustrious. It thirsts for distinction.
Abraham Lincoln
Image
I sincerely wish war was a pleasanter and easier business than it is, but it does not admit of holidays.
