Be inspired by the inspirational words of wisdom
of Abraham Lincoln:

A friend is one who has the same enemies as you have.

Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is
more important than any other.

If there is anything that a man can do well, I say let him do it.
Give him a chance.

Common looking people are the best in the world:
that is the reason the Lord makes so many of them.

Every one desires to live long, but no one would be old.

All I am, or can be, I owe to my angel mother.

I'm a slow walker, but I never walk back.

No man has a good enough memory to be a successful liar.

Be sure you put your feet in the right place,
then stand firm.

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

Books serve to show a man that those original thoughts
of his aren't very new at all.

Character is like a tree and reputation like a shadow.
The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to
speak out and remove all doubt.
