We all remember Abraham Lincoln as the leader who saved our Union. Founder of the Republican Party. -- Barack Obama
The perfection of our union, especially our commitment to equality of opportunity, has been a story of constant striving to live up to our Founding principles. This is what Abraham Lincoln meant when he said, 'In giving freedom to the slave, we assure freedom to the free - honorable alike in what we give, and what we preserve.' -- Paul Ryan
If the people of Utah shall peacefully form a State Constitution tolerating polygamy, will the Democracy admit them into the Union? -- Abraham Lincoln
Among the friends of Union, there is great diversity of sentiment and of policy in regard to slavery and the African race among us. -- Abraham Lincoln
I think that slavery is wrong, morally, socially and politically. I desire that it should be no further spread in these United States, and I should not object if it should gradually terminate in the whole Union. -- Abraham Lincoln
I do not expect the Union to be dissolved - I do not expect the house to fall - but I do expect it will cease to be divided. It will become all one thing, or all the other. -- Abraham Lincoln
The mystic cords of memory, stretching from every battlefield and patriot grave to every living heart and hearthstone, all over this broad land, will yet swell the chorus of the Union, when again touched, as surely they will be, by the angels of our nature. -- Abraham Lincoln
To the best of my judgment, I have labored for, and not against, the Union. As I have not felt, so I have not expressed any harsh sentiment towards our Southern brethren. I have constantly declared, as I really believed, the only difference between them and us is the difference of circumstances. -- Abraham Lincoln
My paramount object in this struggle is to save the Union, and is not either to save or to destroy slavery. If I could save the Union without freeing any slave, I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone, I would also do that. -- Abraham Lincoln
I understand a ship to be made for the carrying and preservation of the cargo, and so long as the ship can be saved, with the cargo, it should never be abandoned. This Union likewise should never be abandoned unless it fails and the possibility of its preservation shall cease to exist, without throwing passengers and cargo overboard. -- Abraham Lincoln
In this temple As in the hearts of the people For whom he saved the Union The memory of Abraham Lincoln Is enshrined forever -- Royal Cortissoz
