"Why don't you laugh? If I did..." - Quote by Abraham Lincoln

“It is my pleasure that my children are free and happy, and unrestrained by parental tyranny. Love is the chain whereby to bind a child to its parents.”

“I have always wanted to deal with everyone I meet candidly and honestly. If I have made any assertion not warranted by facts, and it is pointed out to me, I will withdraw it cheerfully.”

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

“When we got married, the first thing my wife did was put everything under both names - hers and her mother's.”

“Do not spit gum in the drinking fountains.”

“Science is a wonderful thing if one does not have to earn one's living at it.”

“Against the assault of laughter, nothing can stand.”

“Real life is in love, laughter, and work.”

“Women should be tough, tender, laugh as much as possible, and live long lives. The struggle for equality continues unabated, and the woman warrior who is armed with wit and courage will be among the first to celebrate victory.”
