Lincoln quotes: Those who deny freedom to others, deserve it not for themselves; and, under a just God, can not long retain it.
I leave you, hoping that the lamp of liberty will burn in your bosoms until there shall no longer be a doubt that all men are created free and equal. I am rather inclined to silence, and whether that be wise or not, it is at least more unusual nowadays to find a man who can hold his tongue than to find one who cannot. Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. A house divided against itself cannot stand. All I am, or can be, I owe to my angel mother. As I would not be a slave, so I would not be a master. This expresses my idea of democracy. Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed, is more important than any other one thing. Upon the subject of education, not presuming to dictate any plan or system respecting it, I can only say that I view it as the most important subject which we as a people can be engaged in. In this sad world of ours, sorrow comes to all; and, to the young, it comes with bitterest agony, because it takes them unawares. If you are resolutely determined to make a lawyer of yourself, the thing is more than half done already." The man does not live who is more devoted to peace than I am. None who would do more to preserve it. A woman is the only thing I am afraid of that I know will not hurt me. ------------------ "I think Barack Obama is a genius. I think this is part of the plan. Do you ever notice when Barack Obama nominates someone, the first thing they do is pay their taxes? He's found a way to pay off the deficit. Nominate every single person in the country one at a time, until they pay off the deficit." --Jay Leno "But it was fun to have Rod Blagojevich on the program, because for one night, I was not the creepiest guy on the show." --David Letterman "And the US Postal Service says they may cut postal service from six days to five days a week. They say they're losing money because people aren't using the postal service as much as they used to. If you'd like to complain, you can e-mail the complaint to [email protected]<http://uspostalservice.com/>." --Jay Leno "Nation, last night, President Obama called his handling of the Tom Daschlenomination 'a mistake.' This is great news, because we all know that a president only admits to a mistake at the end of his term. So it is official: The Obama administration is over" --Stephen Colbert "I was stunned by the Daschle story because we don't expect Democrats to cheat on their taxes. No, we expect Democrats to cheat on their wives. That's how this is supposed to go!" --David Letterman "The New York Post is reporting that Bernard Madoff's family is so upset with his actions in this Ponzi scheme, they're thinking of changing the family name to something less offensive, like bin Laden." --Jay Leno "President Obama, before Sunday's Super Bowl, did an interview with Matt Lauer, during which he predicted the Steelers would win a squeaker, and sure enough, they did. So it's a shame he didn't bet the deficit on the game." --Jimmy Kimmel "You know what really did Tom Daschle in? It turns out there are now pictures of him partying with Michael Phelps." --Jay Leno "It was a great day for us here at the show but not a great day for Batman, or as he's known in real life, actor Christian Bale. Bale was all over the Internet today. Have you heard that tape? We can't play it for you, because some of the language is not appropriate for TV. Almost everyone who's heard this tape says it's offensive, but former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevichdisagreed, calling it 'amateur,' and 'not cussy enough.'" --Craig Ferguson "President Obama's busy. He's fighting very hard to get his stimulus packagepassed, and one of the senators resisting President Obama's stimulus package the most is John McCain. John McCain's resisting the package, yeah. Apparently, McCain's biggest problem with the package is that it's not in a larger font." --Conan O'Brien --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "WebTV Dawgs/Dittos" group.
