“I am slow to learn and slow to forget that which I have learned. My mind is like a piece of steel, very hard to scratch any thing on it and almost impossible after you get it there to rub it out.”

Abraham Lincoln

“There can be glory in failure and despair in success.”

Abraham Lincoln

“I have been driven many times to my knees by the overwhelming conviction that I had nowhere else to go.”

Abraham Lincoln

“I don't know who my grandfather was; I am much more concerned to know what his grandson will be.”

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

“You may deceive all the people part of the time, and part of the people all the time, but not all the people all the time.”

Abraham Lincoln

“A tendancy to melancholy...let it be observed, is a misfortune, not a fault.”

Abraham Lincoln

“All that I am or ever hope to be, I owe to my angel mother.”

Abraham Lincoln

“The worst thing you can do for those you love is the things they could and should do themselves.”

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

“Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday.”

Abraham Lincoln

“Everything I ever learned, I learned from books.”

Abraham Lincoln

“The better part of one's life consists of his friendships.”

Abraham Lincoln

“You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time.”

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.”
