Believing everybody is danger...

Believing everybody is dangerous, but believing nobody is more dangerous.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

In this troublesome world, we...

In this troublesome world, we are never quite satisfied. When you were here, I thought you hindered me some in attending to business; but now, having nothing but business---no variety---it has grown exceedingly tasteless to me. I hate to sit down and direct documents, and I hate to stay in this old room by myself.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Ballots are the rightful and ...

It is for us and our time...to say the right makes might.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

The purposes of the Almighty ...

The purposes of the Almighty are perfect, and must prevail, though we erring mortals may fail to accurately perceive them in advance. We hoped for a happy termination of this terrible war long before this; but God knows best, and has ruled otherwise. We shall yet acknowledge His wisdom, and our own error therein. Meanwhile we must work earnestly in the best lights He gives us, trusting that so working still conduces to the great ends He ordains. Surely He intends some great good to follow this mighty convulsion, which no mortal could make, and no mortal could stay.

I happen temporarily to occupy this big White House. I am living witness that any one of your children may look to come here as my father's child has.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

It is safe to assert that no ...

It is safe to assert that no government proper ever had a provision in its organic law for its own termination.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

I hold that if the Almighty had ever made a set of men that should do all the eating and none of the work, he would have made them with mouths only and no hands, and if he had ever made another class that he intended should do all the work and none of the eating, he would have made them without mouths and with all hands.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

If ever this free people, if ...

If ever this free people, if this Government itself is ever utterly demoralized, it will come from this incessant human wriggle and struggle for office, which is but a way to live without work.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

But, slavery is good for some...

But, slavery is good for some people! ! ! As a good thing, slavery is strikingly peculiar, in this, that it is the only good thing which no man ever seeks the good of, for himself.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

You are ambitious, which, within reasonable bounds, does good rather than harm.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

The greatest fine art of the ...

The greatest fine art of the future will be the making of a comfortable living from a small piece of land.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

If there is anything which it...

If there is anything which it is the duty of the whole people to never entrust to any hands but their own, that thing is the preservation and perpetuity of their own liberties and institutions.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

If the good people in their w...

If the good people in their wisdom shall see fit to keep me in the background, I have been too familiar with disappointments to bevery much chagrined.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

The Cause of civil liberty mu...

The Cause of civil liberty must not be surrendered at the end of one, or even one hundred defeats.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

I always [or "often"] walk slowly, but I never walk backwards.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

If 600,000 people have to die in order for the nation to live, then 600,000 people will die.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

As long as the Almighty permitted intelligent men, created in his image and likeness, to fight in public and kill each other while the world looks on approvingly, it's not for me to deprive the chickens of the same privilege.

Were it not for my little jokes, I could not bear the burdens of this office.
