• How wonderfully beautiful is the delineation of the characters of the three patriarchs in Genesis! To be sure if ever man could, without impropriety, be called, or supposed to be, "the friend of God," Abraham was that man. We are not surprised that Abimelech and Ephron seem to reverence him so profoundly. He was peaceful, because of his conscious relation to God.

• Are there not thousands who have loved virtue who did not accept Jesus Christ in any supernatural or miraculous fashion, who, if they knew of him at all, knew of him only as the Nazarene peasant - the man Jesus. Such was Abraham Lincoln, the tender prophet of the gospel of good will upon earth.

• What began as a bitter dispute over Union and States' Rights, ended as a struggle over the meaning of freedom in America. At Gettysburg in 1863, Abraham Lincoln said perhaps more than he knew. The war was about a new birth of freedom.

• Él (Abraham Lincoln) dijo que quería visitar Tierra Santa y ver aquellos lugares santificados por las huellas del Salvador. Decía que no había ciudad que deseara tanto ver como Jerusalén. Y con las palabras a medio pronunciar en su lengua, la bala del asesino entró en el cerebro, y el alma del gran y buen Presidente fue llevada por los ángeles a la Nueva Jerusalén de arriba.

• No man can do both effective and decent work in public life unless he is a practical politician on the one hand, and a sturdy believer in Sunday-school politics on the other. He must always strive manfully for the best, and yet, like Abraham Lincoln, must often resign himself to accept the best possible.

• I have confused ideas of deity, heavily influenced by mind-altering years of reading science fiction, that do not often trouble me, but one thing I know for certain, and have known since the age of five or six, is that I really can't stand the God of Abraham. In fact, I consider him to constitute the pattern to which every true asshole I have ever known in my life has pretty well conformed.

• We are redeemed one man at a time. There is no family pass ticket or park hopping pass to life. One ticket - one at a time. Man doesn't vanquish hatred or bigotry. The target keeps moving. From the blacks to the Irish; atheists to Christians. But as always there are a few leaders: Ben Franklin, John Quincy Adams, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Abraham Lincoln, Fredrick Douglas, Booker T Washington, Ghandi and Martin Luther King. They know that the march toward freedom never ends, man must be ever vigilant and pray less with his lips and more with his legs.

• Since Obama has expressed admiration for the portrait of Abraham Lincoln that Doris Kearns Goodwin paints in Team of Rivals, he could do the 16th president one better: He should name Hillary Clinton as his running mate in 2012. That would be both needed change and audacious.

• The fields of clinical psychology and psychiatry exist specifically to help the emotionally unstable become more stable and lead happier, healthier lives. Unlike in the eras of Vincent Van Gogh and Abraham Lincoln, there is now professional help available for those who suffer from emotional illness. Treatment may require therapy or even medication, but hope is now available every single day in practically every city in the civilized world.

• Levanté el paño blanco del rostro blanco del hombre al que había adorado como a un ídolo, al que consideraba un semidiós. A pesar de la violencia de la muerte del Presidente, había algo hermoso y solemne en la expresión de su plácido rostro. En él se escondían la dulzura y la delicadeza de la infancia y la majestuosa grandeza de un intelecto divino. Contemplé largamente el rostro y me volví con lágrimas en los ojos y una sensación de ahogo en la garganta. Nunca se había llorado tanto a un hombre. El mundo entero inclinó la cabeza en señal de dolor cuando murió Abraham Lincoln.

• Give us a man of God's own mould
  Born to marshall his fellow-men;
  One whose fame is not bought and sold
  At the stroke of a politician's pen.
  Give us the man of thousands ten,
  Fit to do as well as to plan;
  Give us a rallying-cry, and then
  Abraham Lincoln, give us a Man.

• I assume, gladly, that in the allocation to America of remarkable leaders like Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, and Abraham Lincoln, the Lord was just as careful. After all, if you've got only one Abraham Lincoln, you'd better put him in that point in history when he's most needed-much as some of us might like to have him now.
