More quotes by Abraham Lincoln
Do not destroy that immortal emblem of humanity, the Declaration of Independence.
Abraham Lincoln
Both parties deprecated war but one of them would make war rather than let the nation survive and the other would accept war rather than let it perish. And the war came.
Abraham Lincoln
Negroes, like other people, act upon motives. Why should they do anything for us, if we will do nothing for them? If they stake their lives for us, they must be prompted by the strongest motive, even the promise of freedom. And the promise being made, must be kept.
Abraham Lincoln
Man is not the only animal who labors but he is the only one who improves his workmanship.
Abraham Lincoln
I don't believe in a law to prevent a man from getting rich it would do more harm than good. So while we do not propose any war upon capital, we do wish to allow the humblest man an equal chance to get rich with everybody else.
Abraham Lincoln
Tangible language, which often tells more falsehoods than truths.
Abraham Lincoln
You are green, it is true but they are green also. You are all green alike.
Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln
The government will support you to the utmost of its ability, which is neither more nor less than it has done and will do for allcommanders.
Abraham Lincoln

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
The health you enjoy is largely your choice
Abraham Lincoln
There may sometimes be ungenerous attempts to keep a young man down and they will succeed too, if he allows his mind to be diverted from its true channel to brood over the attempted injury. Cast about, and see if this feeling has not injured every person you have ever known to fall into it.
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
What are you gonna do for a face when the baboon wants his ass back?
Abraham Lincoln
Some day I shall be President.
Abraham Lincoln
Every man has a right to be equal with every other man.
Abraham Lincoln
A man's legs must be long enough to reach the ground.
Abraham Lincoln
Cortissoz was art critic of the New York Herald Tribune.
Abraham Lincoln
Talk to the jury as though your client's fate depends on every word you utter.
Abraham Lincoln
