Excerpt from Abraham Lincoln
Let us thank any man who will tell men, in whatever clumsy and rough fashion, that they are not things, and pieces of a map, but persons, with an everlasting duty, an ever lasting right and wrong, an everlasting God in Whose presence they stand, and Who will judge them according to their works. True, that is not all that men need to learn. After they are taught, each apart, that he is a man, they must be taught how to be an united people, but the individual teaching must come first.
