More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
The plainest print cannot be read through a gold eagle.
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
So plain that no one, high or low, ever does mistake it, except in a plainly selfish way for although volume upon volume is written to prove slavery a very good thing, we never hear of the man who wishes to take the good of it, by being a slave himself.
Abraham Lincoln
Whereas, the Senate of the United States, devoutly recognizing the Supreme Authority and just Government of Almighty God, in all the affairs of men and of nations, has, by a resolution, requested the President to designate and set apart a day for National prayer and humiliation.
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
I have never had a feeling politically that did not spring from the sentiments embodied in the Declaration of Independence.
Abraham Lincoln
Government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the Earth.
Abraham Lincoln
I am not concerned that you have fallen -- I am concerned that you arise.
Abraham Lincoln
There is more involved in this contest than is realized by every one. There is involved in this struggle the question whether your children and my children shall enjoy the privileges we have enjoyed.
Abraham Lincoln
The fiery trials through which we pass will light us down in honor or dishonor to the latest generation.
Abraham Lincoln
Truth is generally the best vindication against slander
Abraham Lincoln
Every head should be cultivated.
Abraham Lincoln
It is a good face. I am glad this war is over at last.
Abraham Lincoln
I know the hole he went in at, but I can't tell you what hole he will come out of.
Abraham Lincoln
Towering genius distains a beaten path.
Abraham Lincoln
He who represents himself has a fool for a client
Abraham Lincoln
Every blade of grass is a study and to produce two, where there was but one, is both a profit and a pleasure.
Abraham Lincoln
Peace will come soon to stay, and so come as to be worth keeping in all future time. It will then have proved that among free men there can be no successful appeal from the ballot to the bullet, and that they who take such appeal are sure their cases and pay the costs.
Abraham Lincoln
I am a little uneasy about the abolishment of slavery in this District of Columbia.
Abraham Lincoln
No man has a right to judge Andrew Johnson in any respect who has not suffered as much and done as much as he for the Nation's sake.
Abraham Lincoln
