Every blade of grass is a stu...

Every blade of grass is a study; and to produce two, where there was but one, is both a profit and a pleasure.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

We must remember that the peo...

We must remember that the people of all the States are entitled to all the privileges and immunities of the citizen of the several States. We should bear this in mind, and act in such a way as to say nothing insulting or irritating. I would inculcate this idea, so that we may not, like Pharisees, set ourselves up to be better than other people.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Fellow-citizens, we cannot es...

Fellow-citizens, we cannot escape history. We of this Congress and this administration, will be remembered in spite of ourselves. No personal significance, or insignificance, can spare one or another of us. The fiery trial through which we pass, will light us down, in honor or dishonor, to the latest generation.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

All the armies of Europe comb...

All the armies of Europe combined could not by force make a track upon the Blue Ridge, or take a drink from the Ohio. If we are to be destroyed, we must do it ourselves.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

I believe this Government can...

I believe this Government cannot endure, permanently half slave and half free.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

We trust, sir, that God is on...

We trust, sir, that God is on our side. It is more important to know that we are on God's side.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

I shall always think of mysel...

I shall always think of myself first and foremost... as a hunter.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Such a man the times have dem...

Such a man the times have demanded, and such, in the providence of God was given us. But he is gone. Let us strive to deserve, as far as mortals may, the continued care of Divine Providence, trusting that, in future national emergencies, He will not fail to provide us the instruments of safety and security.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

While the people retain their...

While the people retain their virtue and vigilance, no administration, by any extreme of wickedness or folly, can very seriously injure the government in the short space of four years.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

There may sometimes be ungene...

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 1446 quotes

In my entire life I have only...

In my entire life I have only met four "perfect" people... and I disliked them all.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

I never trusted a man who nev...

I never trusted a man who never smoked or drank.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

It has been said of the world...

It has been said of the world's history hitherto that might makes right. It is for us and for our time to reverse the maxim, and to say that right makes might.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Nowhere in the world is prese...

Nowhere in the world is presented a government of so much liberty and equality. To the humblest and poorest amongst us are held out the highest privileges and positions. The present moment finds me at the White House, yet there is as good a chance for your children as there was for my father's.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

I think the authors of that n...

I think the authors of that notable instrument [the Declaration of Independence] intended to include all men.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

It is not our frowning battle...

It is not our frowning battlements...or the strength our gallant and disciplined army? These are not our reliance against a resumption of tyranny in our fair land... Our defense is in the preservation of the spirit which prizes liberty as the heritage of all men, in all lands, everywhere.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

The occasion is piled high with difficulty. We must rise to the occasion.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

The master not only governs t...

The master not only governs the slave without his consent, but he governs him by a set of rules altogether different from those which he prescribes for himself. Allow ALL the governed an equal voice in the government, and that, and that only, is self-government.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

As long as the Almighty permi...

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.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

It is not merely for to-day, ...

It is not merely for to-day, but for all time to come that we should perpetuate for our children's children this great and free government, which we have enjoyed all our lives.
