More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
Marriage is neither heaven nor hell, it is simply purgatory.
Abraham Lincoln
The love of property and consciousness of right and wrong have conflicting places in our organization, which often makes a man's course seem crooked, his conduct a riddle.
Abraham Lincoln
The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here so nobly advanced.
Abraham Lincoln
The one victory we can ever call complete will be that one which proclaims that there is not one slave or one drunkard on the face of God's green earth.

Abraham Lincoln
The Union, and the Constitution, are the picture of silver, subsequently framed around it. The picture was not made to conceal or destroy the apple, but to adorn and preserve it. The picture was made for the apple-not the apple for the picture.
Abraham Lincoln
We all declare for liberty, but in using the same word we do not all mean the same thing.
Abraham Lincoln
Government, possessing the power to create and issue currency and credit as money and enjoying the right to withdraw both currency and credit from circulation by taxation and otherwise, need not and should not borrow capital at interest as a means of financing government work and public enterprises.
Abraham Lincoln
When met with a problem I always ask myself what is the right thing to do and then I do it.
Abraham Lincoln
I would like to speak in terms of praise due to the many brave officers and soldiers who have fought in the cause of the war.
Abraham Lincoln
Your organization will take on the personality of its top leaders
Abraham Lincoln
I find quite as much material for a lecture in those points wherein I have failed, as in those wherein I have been moderately successful.
Abraham Lincoln
