"If both factions, or neither, shall abuse..." - Quote by Abraham Lincoln

“It often requires more courage to dare to do right than to fear to do wrong.”

“We have all heard of Young America. He is the most current youth of the age. Some think him conceited, and arrogant; but has he not reason to entertain a rather extensive opinion of himself? Is he not the inventor and owner of the present, and sole hope of the future?”

“Prosperity is the fruit of labor. It begins with saving money.”

“At 50, I began to know who I was. It was like waking up to myself.”

“To live in the presence of great truths and eternal laws, to be led by permanent ideals - that is what keeps a man patient when the world ignores him, and calm and unspoiled when the world praises him.”

“One should never impose one's views on a problem; one should rather study it, and in time a solution will reveal itself.”

“Most people use two totally different sets of criteria for judging themselves versus others. We tend to judge others according to their actions. It's very cut-and-dried. However, we judge ourselves by our intentions. Even if we do the wrong thing, if we believe our motives were good, we let ourselves off the hook. And we are often willing to do that over and over before requiring ourselves to change.”

“O Judgment ! Thou art fled to brutish beasts, and men have lost their reason !”

“One can know a man from his laugh, and if you like a man's laugh before you know anything of him, you may confidently say that he is a good man.”
