It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced (Us Quotes)
Washington's is the mightiest name on Earth, long since mightiest in the cause of civil liberty, still mightiest in moral reformation. On that name no eulogy is expected. It cannot be.

In solemn awe pronounce the name, and in its naked deathless splendor leave it shining on (Us Quotes)

Our government rests in public opinion. Whoever can change public opinion, can change the government, practically just so much (Us Quotes)
Those who deny freedom to others, deserve it not for themselves; and, under a just God, can not long retain it (Us Quotes)
Did Stanton say I was a damned fool? Then I dare say I must be one, for Stanton is generally right and he always says what he means (Us Quotes)
We hope all danger may be overcome; but to conclude that no danger may ever arise would itself be extremely dangerous (Us Quotes)
Whoever removes the Cross and it's interpretation by the New Testament from the center, in order to replace it, for example, with the social commitment of Jesus to the oppressed as a new center, no longer stands in continuity with the apostolic faith (Us Quotes)
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 (Us Quotes)
Why should there not be a patient confidence in the ultimate justice of the people? Is there any better or equal hope in the world? (Us Quotes)
The struggle of today, is not altogether for today it is for a vast future also. With a reliance on Providence, all the more firm and earnest, let us proceed in the great task which events have devolved upon us (Us Quotes)
It is proof of a base and low mind for one to wish to think with the masses or majority, merely because the majority is the majority. Truth does not change because it is, or is not, believed by a majority of the people (Us Quotes)
Still let us not be over sanguine of a speedy final triumph. Let us be quite sober. Let us diligently apply the means, never doubting that a just God, in his own good time, will give us the rightful result (Us Quotes)
Our creator is the same and never changes despite the names given Him by people here and in all parts of the world. Even if we gave Him no name at all, He would still be there, within us, waiting to give us good on this Earth (Us Quotes)
How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving and tolerant of the weak and strong. Because someday in your life you will have been all of these (Us Quotes)
It seemed romantic but also tragic - people would be winning but then lose it all, or crash but fight on, break bones but get back on their bikes and try to finish. Just getting to the end was seen as an achievement in itself (Us Quotes)
Amateurism is the strongest form of discrimination in sports. Because it discriminates against the underprivileged, it discriminates against the poor. If we want sports to go back to the wealthy, let's make it amateur again (Us Quotes)
Physically speaking, we cannot separate. We cannot remove our respective sections from each other, nor build an impassable wall between them. A husband and wife may be divorced, and go out of the presence, and beyond the reach of each other; but the different parts of our country cannot do this. They cannot but remain face to face; and intercourse, either amicable or hostile, must continue between them (Us Quotes)
On the first day of January in the year of our Lord, one thousand eight hundred and sixty three, all persons held as slaves within any state, or designated part of a state, the people whereof shall then be in rebellion against the United States shall be then, thenceforward, and forever free (Us Quotes)
I hope we will not so characterize religious people as being so narrow and so biased towards people not of their own religion that they cannot even work with them in this common cause to which you say they are committed (Us Quotes)
