More quotes by 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
Man is not the only animal who labors but he is the only one who improves his workmanship.
Abraham Lincoln
I affect no contempt for the high eminence he [Senator Stephen Douglas] has reached. So reached, that the oppressed of my species,might have shared with me in the elevation, I would rather stand on that eminence, than wear the richest crown that ever pressed a monarch's brow.
Abraham Lincoln
Intoxicated with unbroken success, we have become too self sufficient to feel the necessity of redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to pray to the God that made us.
Abraham Lincoln
President Lincoln was once criticized for his attitude toward his enemies. Why do you try to make friends of them? asked an associate. You should try to destroy them. Am I not destroying my enemies, Lincoln gently replied, when I make them my friends?
Abraham Lincoln
Peace will come soon to stay, and so come as to be worth keeping in all future time. It will then have proved that among free men there can be no successful appeal from the ballot to the bullet, and that they who take such appeal are sure their cases and pay the costs.
Abraham Lincoln
A nation that does not honor its heroes will not long endure.
Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln
The man who stands by and says nothing, when the peril of his government is discussed, can not be misunderstood. If not hindered, he is sure to help the enemy.
Abraham Lincoln
As we keep or break the Sabbath Day we nobly save or meanly lose the last best hope by which man rises.
Abraham Lincoln
We have been the recipients of the choicest bounties of Heaven we have been preserved these many years in peace and prosperity we have grown in numbers, wealth, and power as no other nation has ever grown.
Abraham Lincoln
No one has needed favours more than I, and generally, few have been less unwilling to accept them but in this case, favour to me,would be injustice to the public, and therefore I must beg your pardon for declining it.
Abraham Lincoln
I am the President of the United States of America, clothed in immense power! You will procure me these votes.
Abraham Lincoln
I am much indebted to the good Christian people of the country for their constant prayers and consolations and to no one of them, more than to yourself.
Abraham Lincoln
I shall not do more than I can, and I shall do all I can to save the government, which is my sworn duty as well as my personal inclination. I shall do nothing in malice. What I deal with is too vast for malicious dealing.
Abraham Lincoln
God is the silent partner in ALL great enterprises.
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
Never stir up litigation, a worse man can scarcely be found than one who does this, who can be more nearly a fiend than he who habitually overhauls the register of deeds in search of defects in titles, whereon to stir up strife, and put money in his pocket?
Abraham Lincoln
Stand with anybody that stands right, stand with him while he is right and part with him when he goes wrong.
