“My great concern is not whether you have failed, but whether you are content with your failure.”

Abraham Lincoln

“The will of God prevails. In great contests each party claims to act in accordance with the will of God. Both *may* be, and one *must* be, wrong. God cannot be *for* and *against* the same thing at the same time. In the present civil war it is quite possible that God's purpose is something different from the purpose of either party - and yet the human instrumentalities, working just as they do, are of the best adaption to effect His purpose. I am almost ready to say that this is probably true - that God wills this contest, and wills that it shall not end yet. By His mere great power, on the minds of the now contestants, He could have either *saved* or *destroyed* the Union without human contest. Yet the contest began, And, having begun He could give the final victory to either side any day. Yet the contest proceeds.”

Abraham Lincoln

“Our progress in degeneracy appears to me to be pretty rapid. As a nation, we began by declaring that 'all men are created equal.' We now practically read it, 'all men are created equal, except negroes.' When the Know-Nothings get control, it will read, 'all men are created equal, except negroes, and foreigners, and Catholics.' When it comes to this I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretense of loving liberty—to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocrisy.”

Abraham Lincoln

“The things I want to know are in books; my best friend is the man who'll get me a book I ain't read.”

Abraham Lincoln

“If any man tells you he loves America, yet hates labor, he is a liar. If any man tells you he trusts America, yet fears labor, he is a fool.”

Abraham Lincoln

“Stand with anyone that is right; stand with him while he is right and part with him when he goes wrong.”

“No matter how much the cats fight, there always seem to be plenty of kittens. ”

Abraham Lincoln

“I'm a success today because I had a friend who believed in me and I didn't have the heart to let him down.”

Abraham Lincoln

“I was a little cross.I ask pardon. If I do get up a little temper I have no sufficient time to keep it up.”

Abraham Lincoln

“A house divided against itself cannot stand." I believe this government cannot endure, permanently half slave and half free. I do not expect the Union to be dissolved — I do not expect the house to fall — but I do expect it will cease to be divided. It will become all one thing or all the other.”

Abraham Lincoln

“Books serve to show a man that those original thoughts of his aren't very new after all.”

Abraham Lincoln

“All I have learned, I learned from books.”
