My education was the liberty I had to read indiscriminately and all the time, with my eyes hanging out Picture Quote #1

Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this Picture Quote #1

I weep for the liberty of my country when I see at this early day of it's successful experiment that corruption has been imputed to many members of the House of Representatives, and the rights of the people have been bartered for promises of office Picture Quote #1

There is nothing that I shudder at more than the idea of a separation of the Union. Should such an event ever happen, which I fervently pray God to avert, from that date I view our liberty gone Picture Quote #1
