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.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

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 1446 quotes

Both read the same Bible, and ...

Both read the same Bible, and pray to the same God; and each invokes His aid against the other. It may seem strange that any men should dare to ask a just God's assistance in wringing their bread from the sweat of other men's faces; but let us judge not that we be not judged. The prayers of both could not be answered; that of neither has been answered fully.

I think to lose Kentucky is nearly the same as to lose the whole game.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

My paramount object in this struggle is to save the Union, and is not either to save or to destroy slavery. If I could save the Union without freeing any slave I would do it, and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone I would also do that. What I do about slavery, and the colored race, I do because I believe it helps to save the Union; and what I forbear, I forbear because I do not believe it would help to save the Union.

My paramount objective in this struggle is to save the Union, and is not to either save or destroy Slavery.

In your hands, my dissatisfied fellow-countrymen, and not in mine, is the momentous issue of civil war.

The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here so nobly advanced.

You are green, it is true; but they are green also. You are all green alike.

The trouble with Hooker is that he's got his headquarters where his hindquarters aught to be.

Sending armies to McClellan is like shoveling fleas across a barnyard, not half of them get there.
