Family life may also collapse and the increase of mixed breed bastards may some day challenge the supremacy of the white man (Abraham Lincoln Quotes)
I will say, then, that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races: that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people (Abraham Lincoln Quotes)

Thoughtful men must feel that the fate of civilization upon this continent is involved in the issue of our contest. Among the most satisfying proofs of this conviction is the hearty devotion everywhere exhibited by our schools and colleges to the national cause (Abraham Lincoln Quotes)

By general law life and limb must be protected; yet often a limb must be amputated to save a life; but a life is never wisely given to save a limb (Abraham Lincoln Quotes)
If destruction be our lot we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of free men we must live through all time, or die by suicide (Abraham Lincoln Quotes)
