All that I am, or hope to be, I owe to my angel mother

All that I am, or hope to be, I owe to my angel mother Picture Quote #1

All that I am, or hope to be, I owe to my angel mother

Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States, is often quoted as saying, “All that I am, or hope to be, I owe to my angel mother.” This statement speaks volumes about the profound impact that Lincoln’s mother had on his life and the person he became.

Lincoln’s mother, Nancy Hanks Lincoln, played a crucial role in shaping his character and values. She instilled in him a strong work ethic, a sense of compassion, and a deep commitment to justice and equality. Despite facing numerous hardships and challenges in her own life, Nancy Lincoln always remained resilient and determined, setting an example for her son to follow.

Growing up in a log cabin in rural Kentucky, Lincoln’s childhood was marked by poverty and hardship. His mother’s unwavering love and support provided him with the strength and encouragement he needed to overcome these obstacles. She taught him the value of education and the importance of standing up for what is right, even in the face of adversity.

As Lincoln grew older and embarked on his political career, he carried with him the lessons and values that his mother had imparted to him. His commitment to ending slavery, preserving the Union, and promoting equality for all people can be traced back to the influence of his mother. Her belief in the inherent worth and dignity of every individual inspired Lincoln to fight for a better future for all Americans.

In his famous Gettysburg Address, Lincoln spoke of a “government of the people, by the people, for the people.” This vision of a nation built on the principles of equality and justice reflects the values that his mother instilled in him. Without her guidance and support, Lincoln may not have become the great leader and statesman that he was.
