More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
Tangible language, which often tells more falsehoods than truths.
Abraham Lincoln
As to the whiskers, having never worn any, do you not think people would call it a piece of silly affectation if I were to begin it now?
Abraham Lincoln
I turn, then, and look to the American people and to that God who has never forsaken them.
Abraham Lincoln
In law it is good policy to never plead what you need not, lest you oblige yourself to prove what you can not.
Abraham Lincoln
Elections belong to the people. It's their decision. If they decide to turn their back on the fire and burn their behinds, then they will just have to sit on their blisters.
Abraham Lincoln
We, on our side, are praying to Him to give us victory, because we believe we are right but those on the other side pray to Him, look for victory, believing they are right. What must He think of us?
Abraham Lincoln
I pray that our Heavenly Father may assuage the anguish of your bereavement, and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours, to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of Freedom.
Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln
The occasion is piled high with difficulty. We must rise to the occasion.
Abraham Lincoln
The money power preys on the nation in times of peace, and conspires against it in times of adversity. It is more despotic than monarchy, more insolent than autocracy, more selfish than bureaucracy. It denounces, as public enemies, all who question its methods or throw light upon its crimes.
Abraham Lincoln
No man is good enough to govern another man without the other's consent.
Abraham Lincoln
The foregoing history may not be precisely accurate in every particular but I am sure it is sufficiently so, for all the uses I shall attempt to make of it, and in it, we have before us, the chief material enabling us to correctly judge whether the repeal of the Missouri Compromise is right or wrong.
Abraham Lincoln
Being President is like the man who was tarred and feathered and ridden out of town on a rail... A man in the crowd asked how he liked it, and his reply was that if it wasn't for the honor of the thing, he would much rather walk.
Abraham Lincoln
The time has come when I am for everybody fighting the rebels. Let Indians fight them let the Negroes fight them and if you have got any strong-legged jackasses in Iwoa that can kick rebels to death, they have my hearty consent.
Abraham Lincoln
The demon of intemperance ever seems to have delighted in sucking the blood of genius and of generosity.
Abraham Lincoln
