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
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure.
Abraham Lincoln
The Almighty has His own purposes.
Abraham Lincoln
Lamon, that speech won't scour. It is a flat failure and the people are disappointed.
Abraham Lincoln
He has a right to criticize, who has a heart to help.
Abraham Lincoln
It's bad. It's damned bad.
Abraham Lincoln
If frienship is your weakest point then you are the strongest person in the world.
