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

Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln
Honor is better than honors.
Abraham Lincoln
I have always believed that a good laugh was good for both the mental and physical digestion.
Abraham Lincoln
We can not have free government without elections and if the rebellion could force us to forego, or postpone a national election it might fairly claim to have already conquered and ruined us.
Abraham Lincoln
If I could save the Union without freeing any slave, I would do it.
Abraham Lincoln
No state, upon its own mere motion, can lawfully get out of the Union. Plainly, the central idea of secession, is the essence of anarchy.
Abraham Lincoln
