5. Abraham Lincoln Quotes
• “Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to
speak out and remove all doubt.”
• “He can compress the most words into the smallest
ideas of any man I ever met.”
• “Let me not be understood as saying that there are no
bad laws, nor that grievances may not arise for the
redress of which no legal provisions have been made. I
mean to say no such thing. But I do mean to say that
although bad laws, if they exist, should be repealed as
soon as possible, still, while they continue in force, for
the sake of example they should be religiously
observed.”
