More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
In this troublesome world, we are never quite satisfied. When you were here, I thought you hindered me some in attending to business but now, having nothing but business---no variety---it has grown exceedingly tasteless to me. I hate to sit down and direct documents, and I hate to stay in this old room by myself.
Abraham Lincoln
One company can serve some of your needs all of the time, or all of your needs some of the time, but never both.
Abraham Lincoln
The most reliable way to predict the future is to create it.
Abraham Lincoln
The demon of intemperance ever seems to have delighted in sucking the blood of genius and of generosity.
Abraham Lincoln
Whenever I hear anyone arguing for slavery, I feel a strong impulse to see it tried on him personally.
Abraham Lincoln
As to your kind wishes for myself, allow me to say I can not enter the ring on the money basis--first, because, in the main, it iswrong and secondly, I have not, and can not get, the money. I say, in the main, the use of money is wrong but for certain objects, in a political contest, the use of some, is both right, and indispensable.
Abraham Lincoln
When any church will inscribe over its altar, as its sole qualification for membership, the Savior's condensed statement of the substance of both law and Gospel, 'Thou shalt love the lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul and thy neighbor as thyself' that church will I join with all my heart and all my soul.
Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln
I don't s'pose anybody on earth likes gingerbread better'n I do-and gets less'n I do.
Abraham Lincoln
Don't kneel to me, that is not right. You must kneel to God only, and thank Him for the liberty you will hereafter enjoy.
Abraham Lincoln
Don't worry when you are not recognized, but strive to be worthy of recognition.
Abraham Lincoln
Man is not the only animal who labors but he is the only one who improves his workmanship.
Abraham Lincoln
A drop of honey catches more flies than a gallon of gall. So with men. If you would win a man to your cause, first convince him that you are his sincere friend. Therein is a drop of honey which catches his heart, which, say what he will, is the highroad to his reason.
Abraham Lincoln
Without the assistance of that Divine Being...I cannot succeed. With that assistance I cannot fail.
Abraham Lincoln
I think I stand where that man stands.
Abraham Lincoln
In the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.
Abraham Lincoln
[Uniting workers should not] lead to a war upon property, or the owners of property.
Abraham Lincoln
Nothing is stronger than gentleness.
Abraham Lincoln
None seemed to think the injury arose from the use of a bad thing but from the abuse of a very good thing
