Abraham Lincoln
The ballot is stronger than the bullet.
Abraham Lincoln
The sense of obligation to continue is present in all of us. A duty to strive is the duty of us all. I felt a call to that duty.
Abraham Lincoln
So viewing the issue, no choice was left but to call out the war power of the Government and so to resist force, employed for its destruction, by force, for its preservation.
Abraham Lincoln
Let the people know the truth and the country is safe.
Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln
The shepherd drives the wolf from the sheep's for which the sheep thanks the shepherd as his liberator, while the wolf denounces him for the same act as the destroyer of liberty. Plainly, the sheep and the wolf are not agreed upon a definition of liberty.
Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln
He will have to learn, I know, that all people are not just- that all men and women are not true. Teach him that for every scoundrel there is a hero that for every enemy there is a friend. Let him learn early that the bullies are the easiest people to lick.
Abraham Lincoln
Our popular government has often been called an experiment. Two points in it our people have already settled, the successful establishing and the successful administering of it. One still remains, its successful maintenance against a formidable internal attempt to overthrow it.
Abraham Lincoln
Free labor has the inspiration of hope pure slavery has no hope.
Abraham Lincoln
The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here so nobly advanced.
Abraham Lincoln
If 600,000 people have to die in order for the nation to live, then 600,000 people will die.
Abraham Lincoln
My old father used to have a saying: If you make a bad bargain, hug it all the tighter.
