President Lincoln will fondly be remembered for significant accomplishments and contributions to the United States and mankind. Of the brightest aspects of Lincoln’s life, his great wisdom and Biblical foundation must be included. To remember Lincoln today, I wanted to post some of my most favorite (Lincoln) quotations.

"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.
"Common looking people are the best in the world: that is the reason the Lord makes so many of them."
"I have been driven many times upon my knees by the overwhelming conviction that I had nowhere else to go. My own wisdom and that of all about me seemed insufficient for that day."
"...I know that the Lord is always on the side of the right. But it is my constant anxiety and prayer that I and this nation should be on the Lord's side."
"I am rather inclined to silence, and whether that be wise or not, it is at least more unusual nowadays to find a man who can hold his tongue than to find one who cannot."
"Perhaps a man's character was like a tree, and his reputation like its shadow; the shadow is what we think of it, the tree is the real thing."
"In regard to this Great Book, I have but to say, it is the best gift God has given to man. All the good the Savior gave to the world was communicated through this book."
"The will of God prevails. In great contests each party claims to act in accordance with the will of God. Both may be, and one must be, wrong. God cannot be for and against the same thing at the same time.
"Stand with anybody that stands RIGHT. Stand with him while he is right and PART with him when he goes wrong."
