“I am approached with the most opposite opinions and advice, and that by religious men, who are equally certain that they represent the Divine will. I am sure that either the one or the other is mistaken in that belief, and perhaps in some respects both. I hope it will not be irreverent for me to say that if it is probable that God would reveal his will to others, on a point so connected with my duty, it might be supposed he would reveal it directly to me; for, unless I am more deceived in myself than I often am, it is my earnest desire to know the will of Providence in this matter. And if I can learn what it is, I will do it! These are not, however, the days of miracles, and I suppose it will be granted that I am not to expect a direct revelation. I must study the plain, physical facts of the case, ascertain what is possible and learn what appears to be wise and right.”

Abraham Lincoln

“Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.”

Abraham Lincoln

“Those who deny freedom to others, deserve it not for themselves”

Abraham Lincoln

“Anybody will do for you, but not for me. I must have somebody.”

Abraham Lincoln

“People who like this sort of thing will find this the sort of thing they like.

Abraham Lincoln

“Towering genius disdains a beaten path... It sees no distinction in adding story to story... It scorns to tread in the footsteps of any predecessor, however illustrious. It thirsts and burns for distinction; and, if possible, it will have it...”

Abraham Lincoln

“It's not me who can't keep a secret. It's the people I tell that can't.”

Abraham Lincoln

“I am 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 am naturally anti-slavery. If slavery is not wrong, nothing is wrong.”

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

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

Abraham Lincoln

“Be sure you put your feet in the right place, then stand firm.”

Abraham Lincoln

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

Abraham Lincoln

“We can complain because rose bushes have thorns, or rejoice because thorn bushes have roses.”

Abraham Lincoln

“The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time.”
