Abraham Lincoln Quotes
I certainly know that if the war fails, the administration fails, and that I will be blamed for it, whether I deserve it or not. And I ought to be blamed, if I could do better.

They make you feel special, but at the same time, they make it perfectly plain that you are irrelevant!

Or if it were music over the radio, have you ever tried to think how it would look?
