A house divided against itself cannot stand.
Government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the Earth. You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today. The best way to predict your future is to create it. In the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years. Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves. " A house divided against itself cannot stand." " In the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years." " Government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the Earth." " Whatever you are, be a good one." " Government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth." ' My great concern is not whether you have failed, but whether you are content with your failure.' ' A house divided against itself cannot stand.' ' I am a slow walker, but I never walk back.' ' Whatever you are, be a good one.' ' Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power.' ' In the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.' ' I do not think much of a man who is not wiser today than he was yesterday.' ' You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today.' ' Government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.' ' The best way to predict your future is to create it.' " Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves." " The best way to predict your future is to create it." " In this sad world of ours, sorrow comes to all..." " I am a slow walker, but I never walk back." " You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all of the time." " You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today." The things I want to know are in books; my best friend is the man who'll get me a book I ain't read. I am a slow walker, but I never walk back. In this sad world of ours, sorrow comes to all. Whatever you are, be a good one. " My great concern is not whether you have failed, but whether you are content with your failure." " Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power." My great concern is not whether you have failed, but whether you are content with your failure. Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power. " In this sad world of ours, sorrow comes to all; and, to the young, it comes with bitter agony." " I do not think much of a man who is not wiser today than he was yesterday." ' Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves.' |
