【林肯語錄】

1. When I do good, I feel good; when I do bad, I feel bad, and that is my religion.
當我行善時,我感覺很好;當我作惡時,我感覺很壞,這就是我的宗教。

2. Character is like a tree and reputation like its shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.
品格像是一棵樹,名譽就像是樹的影子。影子是我們所想的,其實樹才是真實的東西。

3. Force is all-conquering, but its victories are short-lived.
武力是可以什麼都征服,但是它的勝利卻是短命的。

4. Whenever I hear anyone arguing for slavery, I feel a strong impulse to see it tried on him personally.
每當我聽到任何人為奴隸制度辯護時,我感到一股強烈的衝動,想要看到奴隸制度加諸於他身上的情景。

Abraham Lincoln, 16th president of US, (1809 - 1865)
