In light of our upcoming Presidential inauguration, here some quotes from “Honest Abe”.
You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time.
Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.
I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts.
I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live by the light that I have. I must stand with anybody that stands right, and stand with him while he is right, and part with him when he goes wrong.
You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today.
For those of you who are interested, here’s the Wikipedia page on Abraham Lincoln. I think you’ll find the article engaging, informative, and an example of one of our greatest presidents. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraham_Lincoln Enjoy!
Until next time…
