More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
Among free men there can be no successful appeal from the ballot to the bullet.
Abraham Lincoln
If they do kill me, I shall never die another death.
Abraham Lincoln
I am struggling to maintain the government, not to overthrow it. I am struggling especially to prevent others from overthrowing it.
Abraham Lincoln
Nothing will divert me from my purpose.
Abraham Lincoln
As our case is new, so we must think anew, and act anew.
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
The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time.
Abraham Lincoln
It is for us and our time...to say the right makes might.
Abraham Lincoln
You may burn my body to ashes, and scatter them to the winds of heaven you may drag my soul down to the regions of darkness and despair to be tormented forever but you will never get me to support a measure which I believe to be wrong, although by doing so I may accomplish that which I believe to be right.
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
There are no bad pictures that's just how your face looks sometimes.
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
It is not merely for to-day, but for all time to come that we should perpetuate for our children's children this great and free government, which we have enjoyed all our lives.
Abraham Lincoln
We believe that the spreading out and perpetuity of the institution of slavery impairs the general welfare. We believe - nay, we know, that that is the only thing that has ever threatened the perpetuity of the Union itself.
Abraham Lincoln
The Almighty has His own purposes.
Abraham Lincoln
Continue to execute all the express provisions of our national Constitution, and the Union will endure forever-it being impossible to destroy it, except by some action not provided for in the instrument itself.
Abraham Lincoln
If all do not join now to save the good old ship of the Union this voyage nobody will have a chance to pilot her on another voyage.
Abraham Lincoln
How many legs does a dog have if you call the tail a leg? Four. Calling a tail a leg doesn't make it a leg.
Abraham Lincoln
If I have one vice and I can call it nothing else it is not able to say 'no'.
Abraham Lincoln
The ant, who has toiled and dragged a crumb to his nest, will furiously defend the fruit of his labor, against whatever robber assails him. So plain, that the most dumb and stupid slave that ever toiled for a master, does constantly know that he is wronged.
Abraham Lincoln
