Honest Abe

Editor,

I would like to share a few quotes from one of our greatest presidents – Abraham Lincoln – also know as ‘Honest Abe.”

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

“Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man’s character, give him power.”

“I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts.”

“Don’t interfere with anything in the Constitution. That must be maintained, for it is the only safeguard of our liberties.”

“Sir, my concern is not whether God is on our side; my greatest concern is to be on God’s side, for God is always right”

Thank you, Donna Bruns, Sunol
