I walk slowly, but never backwards.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Familiarize yourselves with the chains of bondage and you prepare your own limbs to wear them. Accustomed to trample on the rights of others, you have lost the genius of your own independence and become the fit subjects of the first cunning tyrant who rises among you.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

These capitalists generally act harmoniously and in concert to fleece the people, and now that they have got into a quarrel with themselves, we are called upon to appropriate the people's money to settle the quarrel.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

If ever this free people, if t...

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

A man watches his pear-tree day after day, impatient for the ripening of the fruit. Let him attempt to force the process, and he may spoil both fruit and tree. But let him patiently wait, and the ripe pear at length falls into his lap.

I have simply tried to do what seemed best each day, as each day came.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Whatever spiteful fools may say, Each jealous ranting yelper, No woman ever went astray, Without a man to help her

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

That everyone may receive at least a moderate education appears to be an objective of vital importance.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Both parties deprecated war; b...

Both parties deprecated war; but one of them would make war rather than let the nation survive; and the other would accept war rather than let it perish. And the war came.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

We live in the midst of alarms...

We live in the midst of alarms; anxiety beclouds the future; we expect some new disaster with each newspaper we read.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Property is the fruit of labor...

Property is the fruit of labor; property is desirable; it is a positive good.

A capacity and taste for reading gives access to whatever has already been discovered by others.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

To stand in silence when they should be protesting makes cowards of men.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Slavery is founded on the self...

Slavery is founded on the selfishness of man's nature - opposition to it on his love of justice. These principles are in eternal antagonism; and when brought into collision so fiercely as slavery extension brings them, shocks and throes and convulsions must ceaselessly follow.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

If as the friends of colonizat...

If as the friends of colonization hope, the present and coming generations of our countrymen shall by any means, succeed in freeing our land from the dangerous presence of slavery; and, at the same time, in restoring a captive people to their long-lost father-land, with bright prospects for the future; and this too, so gradually, that neither races nor individuals shall have suffered by the change, it will indeed be a glorious consummation.
