Abraham Lincoln
My God! My God! What will the country say?
Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln
Ere long the most valuable of all arts will be the art of deriving a comfortable subsistence from the smallest area of soil. No community where every member possesses the art can ever be the victim of oppression in any of its forms.
Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln
The things I want to know are in books my best friend is the man who'll get me a book I ain't read.
Abraham Lincoln
In my entire life I have only met four perfect people... and I disliked them all.
Abraham Lincoln
You can please some of the people some of the time, all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time, but you can never please all of the people all of the time.
Abraham Lincoln
It's not me who can't keep a secret. It's the people I tell that can't.
Abraham Lincoln
I desire so to conduct the affairs of this administration that if at the end... I have lost every other friend on earth, I shall at least have one friend left, and that friend shall be down inside of me.
Abraham Lincoln
