More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure.
Abraham Lincoln
This is a world of compensations and he who would be no slave, must consent to have no slave.
Abraham Lincoln
Bad promises are better broken than kept.
Abraham Lincoln
Many free countries have lost their liberty, and ours may lose hers but, if she shall, be it my proudest plume, not that I was the last to desert, but that I never deserted her.
Abraham Lincoln
That we we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain - that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom - and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
Abraham Lincoln
I never knew a man who wished to be himself a slave. Consider if you know any good thing, that no man desires for himself.
Abraham Lincoln
If you once forfeit the confidence of your fellow citizens, you can never regain their respect and esteem. It is true that you may fool all of the people some of the time you can even fool some of the people all of the time but you can't fool all of the people all of the time. -Speech at Clinton, Illinois, September 8, 1854.
Abraham Lincoln
Friends, I agree with you in Providence but I believe in the Providence of the most men, the largest purse, and the longest cannon.
Abraham Lincoln
A man's legs must be long enough to reach the ground.
Abraham Lincoln
It often requires more courage to dare to do right than to fear to do wrong.
Abraham Lincoln
It has been my experience that folks who have no vices have very few virtues.
Abraham Lincoln
I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live up to what light I have.
Abraham Lincoln
I will say, then, that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races: that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people.
Abraham Lincoln
If I were two-faced, would I be wearing this one?
Abraham Lincoln
Now what is Judge Douglas Popular Sovereignty? It is, as a principle, no other than that, if one man chooses to make a slave of another man, neither that other man nor anybody else has a right to object.
Abraham Lincoln
Nowhere in the world is presented a government of so much liberty and equality. To the humblest and poorest amongst us are held out the highest privileges and positions. The present moment finds me at the White House, yet there is as good a chance for your children as there was for my father's.
Abraham Lincoln
I am busily engaged in study of the Bible.
Abraham Lincoln
I am glad to see that a system of labor prevails under which laborers can strike when they want to.
Abraham Lincoln
Everybody appreciates a compliment.
Abraham Lincoln
I belive that people should fight for what they believe and only what they believe.
Abraham Lincoln
