A friend is one who has the same enemies as you have
American statesman and lawyer who served as the 16th President of the United States from March 1861 until his assassination in April 1865
Be sure you put your feet in the right place, then stand firm
Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe
The way for a young man to rise is to improve himself in every way he can, never suspecting that anybody wishes to hinder him
A capacity, and taste, for reading gives access to whatever has already been discovered by others
No man is good enough to govern another man without the other’s consent
If you think you can slander a woman into loving you, or a man into voting for you, try it till you are satisfied
You will have to make up for the smallness of your size by your courage and selfless devotion to duty, for it is not life that matters, but the courage, fortitude and determination you bring to it
To be, or not to be: that is the question
There is nothing on this earth more to be prized than true friendship
Justice will not be served until those who are unaffected are as outraged as those who are
Never whisper in company
To eat less is healthy, to speak less is wisdom, and to sleep less is worship
