I specially like what Abe Lincoln Said on the price of Freedom,

That, “all men are created equal” is the sentiment embodied in the Declaration of Independence. Now, my friends, can this country be saved upon that basis? If it can, I will consider myself one of the happiest men in the world, if I can help save it. If it cannot be saved upon that principle, it will be truly awful. But if this country cannot be saved without giving up that principle, I was about to say I would rather be assassinated on this spot, than surrender it.
“If I were two-faced, would I be wearing this one?”

Abraham Lincoln on Ambition, “You are ambitious, which, within reasonable bounds, does good rather than harm.”

And this failure quote by lincoln is very inspirational… “My great concern is not whether you have failed, but whether you are content with your failure.” And great Men aren’t content even with their success!

“I pray that our Heavenly Father may assuage the anguish of your bereavement, and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom.”

“Fellow-citizens, we cannot escape history. We of this Congress and this administration, will be remembered in spite of ourselves. No personal significance, or insignificance, can spare one or another of us. The fiery trial through which we pass, will light us down, in honor or dishonor, to the latest generation.”

“In this sad world of ours, sorrow comes to all; and, to the young, it comes with bitterest agony, because it takes them unawares.”

Abraham Lincoln Quote on winning and success “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.”

  1. You accredited Abraham Lincoln with the following quote: “A house divided against itself cannot stand.?€ Yes, Lincoln did say this but, he was quoting another great man of history. This is not an Lincoln quote but rather a quote from Jesus Christ whom Lincoln was quoting. Please give credit where it is due. Thanks

  2. Thanks for the correction Nathan. I will update the same

    Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them?

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

    And in the end it’s not the years in your life that count. It’s the life in your years.

    I?m enthralled by your beauty, mesmerized by your charisma and spellbound by your love.

  5. I have a website I will be updating a few times a week with original animations and short films along with concept art for the animations and other kinds of media. How can I copyright everything on my site so that the copyright info I have on the bottom of every page “All original content (C) 2008 (My Name)” actually means something? Will my logo, site name, all content be copyrighted?.
