I am not bound to win, but I ...

I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live up to the light I have. I must stand with anybody that stands right - stand with him while he is right and part with him when he goes wrong.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

The surest way to reveal one'...

The surest way to reveal one's character is not through adversity but by giving them power.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

As the patriots of seventy-si...

As the patriots of seventy-six did to the support of the Declaration of Independence, so to the support of the Constitution and Laws, let every American pledge his life, his property, and his sacred honor;-let every man remember that to violate the law, is to trample on the blood of his father, and to tear the character of his own, and his children's liberty.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Persuasion, kind, unassuming ...

Persuasion, kind, unassuming persuasion, should be adopted to influence the conduct of men. The opposite course would be a reversal of human nature, which is God's decree and can never be reversed.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

The strongest bond of human s...

The strongest bond of human sympathy outside the family relation should be one uniting working people of all nations and tongues and kindreds.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

The Union, and the Constituti...

The Union, and the Constitution, are the picture of silver, subsequently framed around it. The picture was not made to conceal or destroy the apple, but to adorn and preserve it. The picture was made for the apple-not the apple for the picture.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

In this age, in this country,...

In this age, in this country, public sentiment is everything. With it, nothing can fail; against it, nothing can succeed. Whoever molds public sentiment goes deeper than he who enacts statutes, or pronounces judicial decisions.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

I hope it will not be irrever...

I hope it will not be irreverent in me to say, that if it be probable that God would reveal his will to others, on a point so connected with my duty, it might be supposed he would reveal it directly to me

The best way to get rid of your enemies is to make them your friends.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

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 1446 quotes

In regard to this Great Book,...

In regard to this Great Book, I have but to say, it is the best gift God has given to man.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Through their deeds, the dead...

Through their deeds, the dead of battle have spoken more eloquently for themselves than any of the living ever could. But we can only honor them by rededicating ourselves to the cause for which they gave a last full measure of devotion.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Always let your subordinates ...

Always let your subordinates know that the honor will be all theirs if they succeed and the blame will be yours if they fail.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

I sincerely wish war was a pl...

I sincerely wish war was a pleasanter and easier business than it is, but it does not admit of holidays.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Calling a tail a leg does not make it a leg.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Destroy your enemy by making ...

Destroy your enemy by making him your friend.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

The dogmas of the quiet past ...

The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

There is a natural disgust in...

There is a natural disgust in the minds of nearly all white people to the idea of indiscriminate amalgamation of the white and black races... A separation of the races is the only perfect preventive of amalgamation, but as an immediate separation is impossible, the next best thing is to keep them apart where they are not already together. If white and black people never get together in Kansas, they will never mix blood in Kansas...

In giving freedom to the slave, we assure freedom to the free.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

As a general rule never take ...

As a general rule never take your whole fee in advance, nor any more than a small retainer. When fully paid beforehand, you are more than a common mortal if you can feel the same interest in the case, as if something was still in prospect for you, as well as for your client.
