Those who look for the bad in people will surely find it. - Abraham Lincoln

"My concern is not whether God is on our side; my greatest concern is to be on God's side, for God is always right."

"I can see how it might be possible for a man to look down upon the earth and be an atheist, but I cannot conceive how a man could look up into the heavens and say there is no God."

"A capacity, and taste, for reading, gives access to whatever has already been discovered by others. It is the key, or one of the keys, to the already solved problems. And not only so. It gives a relish, and facility, for successfully pursuing the [yet] unsolved ones."

"Any people anywhere, being inclined and having the power, have the right to rise up, and shake off the existing government, and form a new one that suits them better. This is a most valuable - a most sacred right - a right, which we hope and believe, is to liberate the world."

"America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."
