I am not concerned that you have fallen -- I am concerned that you arise.
Abraham Lincoln

If you wish to be a lawyer, attach no consequence to the place you are in, or the person you are with but get books, sit down anywhere, and go to reading for yourself. That will make a lawyer of you quicker than any other way.
Abraham Lincoln
Image
Intelligence, patriotism, Christianity, and a firm reliance on Him, who has never yet forsaken this favored land, are still competent to adjust, in the best way, all our present difficulty.
