Additional quotes by Abraham Lincoln

Neither let us be slandered from our duty by false accusations against us, nor frightened from it by menaces of destruction to the Government nor of dungeons to ourselves. Let us have faith that right makes might, and in that faith, let us, to the end, dare to do our duty as we understand it.

The larger the island of knowledge the longer the shore line of wonder. Wonder rather than doubt is the root of knowledge.

You can lose everything in life,but not dreams.
