I Cannot Think That We Are Useless

Wanting To Work Is So Rare A Merit, That It Should Be Encouraged.

I Wish To See, In Process Of Disappearing, That Only Thing Which Ever Could Bring This Nation To Civil War.

God Is The Silent Partner In All Great Enterprises.

We Cannot Escape History.

I Have Always Thought That All Men Should Be Free; But If Any Should Be Slaves, It Should Be First Those Who Desire For Themselves, And Secondly Those Who Desire It For Others. Whenever I Hear Anyone Arguing For Slavery, I Feel A Strong Impulse To See It Tried On Him Personally.
