You cannot build character an...

You cannot build character and courage by taking away people's initiative and independence. You cannot help people permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Those who deny freedom to oth...

Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

We can complain because rose ...

We can complain because rose bushes have thorns, or rejoice because thorn bushes have roses.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

America will never be destroy...

America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

If we exchange one dollar, we...

If we exchange one dollar, we both have one dollar each. But if we exchange one good thought, we both have two good thoughts

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

A day spent helping no one but yourself is a day wasted.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Commitment is what transforms...

Commitment is what transforms a promise into a reality... Commitment is the stuff character is made of; the power to change the face of things. It is the daily triumph of integrity over skepticism.

Behind the cloud the sun is still shining.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

We seek not to overthrow the constitution, but to overthrow those who would prevert it.

I believe the Bible is the best gift God has ever given to man. All the good from The Savior of the world is communicated to us through this Book.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Let every American, every lov...

Let every American, every lover of liberty, every well wisher to his posterity, swear by the blood of the Revolution, never to violate in the least particular, the laws of the country; and never to tolerate their violation by others.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Our republican system was mea...

Our republican system was meant for a homogeneous people. As long as blacks continue to live with the whites they constitute a threat to the national life. Family life may also collapse and the increase of mixed breed bastards may some day challenge the supremacy of the white man.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Any society that takes away f...

Any society that takes away from those most capable and gives to the least will perish.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

We have been preserved, these...

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. But we have forgotten God. We have forgotten the gracious hand which preserved us in peace, and multiplied and enriched and strengthened us; and we have vainly imagined, in the deceitfulness of our hearts, that all these blessings were produced by some superior wisdom and virtue of our own. 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!

The best way to destroy an enemy is to make him a friend.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Those who are ready to sacrif...

Those who are ready to sacrifice freedom for security ultimately will lose both.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

As a nation, we began by decl...

As a nation, we began by declaring that 'all men are created equal.' We now practically read it 'all men are created equal, except negroes.' When the Know-Nothings get control, it will read 'all men are created equal, except negroes, and foreigners, and Catholics.' When it comes to this I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretense of loving liberty – to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocrisy.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

You cannot fail unless you quit.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

I see in the near future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country... corporations have been enthroned and an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until all wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the Republic is destroyed.
