Famous Quotes of Abraham Lincoln

“No man has a good enough memory to be a successful liar” There are too many hypocrites caught with their pants on fire There is one Honest Abe fan whose words are now gone “When you reach the end of your rope, tie a knot and hold on” “You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry” His true colors will always show no matter how spangly One’s temper can surely put you in an awful fix Silence can be golden when your opinions don’t mix “I would rather be a little nobody then to be an evil somebody” Never stand on stage to boast or brag Hold on to your humility, don’t point fingers and nag Organized religion, I no longer belong I don’t need a fancy building and membership to keep my faith strong God knows where my heart is simply by our pidgin “When I do good I feel good When I do bad I feel bad that’s my religion”
