  • Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be.

    Quoted in Francis Carpenter, Six Months at the White House with Abraham Lincoln (1866)
  • Human nature will not change. In any future great national trial, compared with the men of this, we shall have as weak and as strong, as silly and as wise, as bad and as good. Let us therefore study the incidents in this as philosophy to learn wisdom from and none of them as wrongs to be avenged.

    Abraham Lincoln (2012). “The Complete Papers And Writings Of Abraham Lincoln (Biographically Annotated Edition)”, p.63, Jazzybee Verlag
  • Repeal the Missouri Compromise - repeal all compromises - repeal the Declaration of Independence - repeal all past history, you still can not repeal human nature. It still will be the abundance of man's heart, that slavery extension is wrong; and out of the abundance of his heart, his mouth will continue to speak.

    Address on the Repeal of the Missouri Compromise, delivered 16 October 1854, Peoria, Illinois
  • Human action can be modified to some extent, but human nature can not be changed

    Cooper Union Address, delivered 27 February 1860, New York, NY
