Additional quotes by Abraham Lincoln

If we magnified our successes as much as we magnify our disappointments, we'd all be much happier

The coins of Abraham had the figure of an old man and an old woman on the face of the coin, and those of a youth and a maiden on the obverse, signifying that after Abraham and Sarah had grown old their youth was renewed and they begat a son.

The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, we must think anew and act anew. We must disenthrall ourselves, and then we shall save our country.

The only difference between stepping stones and stumbling blocks is the way we address the rocks cast into our path. - Abraham Lincoln
