Abraham Lincoln
What I want is to get done what the people desire to have done, and the question for me is how to find that out exactly.
Abraham Lincoln
I will either be America's greatest president or its last.
Abraham Lincoln
I go for all sharing the privileges of the government who assist in bearing its burdens. Consequently I go for admitting all whites to the right of suffrage who pay taxes or bear arms, by no means excluding females.

Abraham Lincoln
Politicians are a set of men who have interests aside from the interests of the people and who, to say the most of them, are, taken as a mass, at least one long step removed from honest men
Abraham Lincoln
You say you will not fight to free negroes. Some of them seem willing to fight for you but, no matter. Fight you, then exclusively to save the Union.
Abraham Lincoln
I ... ran for Legislature [in 1832] ... and was beaten-the only time I have been beaten by the people.
Abraham Lincoln
The plainest print cannot be read through a gold eagle.
Abraham Lincoln
Allow the president to invade a neighboring nation, whenever he shall deem it necessary to repel an invasion, and you allow him to do so whenever he may choose to say he deems it necessary for such a purpose - and you allow him to make war at pleasure.
Abraham Lincoln
I am for . . . each individual doing just as he chooses in all matters which concern nobody else.
Abraham Lincoln
But fight we must and conquer we shall in the end.
Abraham Lincoln
Never stir up litigation, a worse man can scarcely be found than one who does this, who can be more nearly a fiend than he who habitually overhauls the register of deeds in search of defects in titles, whereon to stir up strife, and put money in his pocket?
Abraham Lincoln
Writing is the great invention of the world.
