Why don't I drink from a straw? Because straws are for suckers.
Abraham Lincoln
If the American people could learn what I know of the fierce hatred of the priests of Rome against our institutions, our schools, our most sacred rights, and our so dearly bought liberties, they would drive them out as traitors.
Abraham Lincoln
I will either be America's greatest president or its last.
Abraham Lincoln
Teach hope to all, despair to none.
Abraham Lincoln
I appeal to all loyal citizens to favor, facilitate and aid this effort to maintain the honor, the integrity, and the existence of our National Union, and the perpetuity of popular government and to redress wrongs already long enough endured.
Abraham Lincoln
I could not have slept tonight if I had left that helpless little creature to perish on the ground.
Abraham Lincoln
I know the hole he went in at, but I can't tell you what hole he will come out of.

The blessing always comes back to the door of the author.
Abraham Lincoln
