I have never had a feeling, po...

I have never had a feeling, politically, that did not spring from the Declaration of Independence that all should have an equal chance. This is the sentiment embodied in the Declaration of Independence, I would rather be assassinated on this spot than surrender it.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

When you make it to the top, turn and reach down for the person behind you.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

I would rather be assassinated...

I would rather be assassinated than see a single star removed from the American flag.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

I told myself, 'Lincoln, you ...

I told myself, 'Lincoln, you can never make a lawyer if you do not understand what demonstrate means.' So I left my situation in Springfield, went home to my father's house, and stayed there till I could give any proposition in the six books of Euclid at sight. I then found out what 'demonstrate' means, and went back to my law studies.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

I never did ask more, nor ever...

I never did ask more, nor ever was willing to accept less, than for all the States, and the people thereof, to take and hold their places, and their rights, in the Union, under the Constitution of the United States. For this alone have I felt authorized to struggle; and I seek neither more nor less now.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

It is a sin to be silent when ...

It is a sin to be silent when it is your duty to protest.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

I could not sleep when I got o...

I could not sleep when I got on the hunt for an idea, until I had caught it. This was a kind of passion with me, and it has stuck with me.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

It must now atone in blood for its complicity in wickedness.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Must I shoot a simple-minded soldier boy who deserts, while I must not touch a hair of the wily agitator who induces him to desert? I think that in such a cse to silence the agitator and save the boy is not only constitutional but withal a great mercy.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

As a general rule, I abstain from reading reports of attacks upon myself, wishing not to be provoked by that to which I cannot properly offer an answer.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Offering thanks in the midst of tragedy is an American tradition, . even during a bloody Civil War.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Lonely men seek companionship....

Lonely men seek companionship. Lonely women sit at home and wait. They never meet.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Singular indeed the people sho...

Singular indeed the people should be writhing under oppression and injury, and yet not one among them to be found, to raise the voice of complaint.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

I fear you do not fully compre...

I fear you do not fully comprehend the danger of abridging the liberties of the people. Nothing but the sternest necessity can ever justify it. A government had better go to the extreme of toleration, than to do aught that could be construed into an interference with, or to jeopardize in any degree, the common rights of its citizens.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

One is a majority if he is rig...

One is a majority if he is right.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

Well, I suppose you know that ...

Well, I suppose you know that men will stand a good deal when they are flattered.

You are as happy as you make up your mind to be.

Force is all conquering, but it's victories are short lived.

Nothing will divert me from my purpose.

Abraham Lincoln 1446 quotes

We are not enemies, but friend...

We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory will swell when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.
