Popular passages
Page 222 - If there be those who would not save the Union unless they could at the same time destroy slavery, I do not agree with them. "My paramount object is to save the Union, and not either to save or destroy slavery.
Page 365 - With malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right, let us strive...
Page 102 - A house divided against itself cannot stand." I believe this Government cannot endure permanently half slave and half free.

Page 226 - Apprehension seems to exist among the people of the Southern States that by the accession of a Republican Administration their property and their peace and personal security are to be endangered. There has never been any reasonable cause for such apprehension. Indeed, the most ample evidence to the contrary has all the while existed and been open to their inspection. It is found in nearly all the public speeches of him who now addresses you.
Page 136 - Our fathers, when they framed the government under which we live, understood this question just as well, and even better than we do now.
