More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
I go for all sharing the privileges of the government who assist in bearing its burdens.

Abraham Lincoln
When I do good, I feel good. When I do bad, I feel bad. That's my religion.
Abraham Lincoln
I am nothing, truth is everything.
Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln
I don't know who my grandfather was I am much more concerned to know what his grandson will be.
Abraham Lincoln
To secure to each laborer the whole product of his labor, or as nearly as possible, is a worthy object of any good government.
Abraham Lincoln
If the good people in their wisdom shall see fit to keep me in the background, I have been too familiar with disappointments to bevery much chagrined.
Abraham Lincoln
Glory to God in the highest, Ohio has saved the Nation.
Abraham Lincoln
Hypocrite: The man who murdered his parents, and then pleaded for mercy on the grounds that he was an orphan.
Abraham Lincoln
The assertion that 'all men are created equal' was of no practical use in effecting our separation from Great Britain and it was placed in the Declaration not for that, but for future use.
Abraham Lincoln
