_TWENTY-SEVENTH_ At any rate, I will keep my part of the bargain. _TWENTY-EIGHTH_ The Lord prefers common-looking people. That is why he made so many of them. _TWENTY-NINTH_ When the time comes, I shall take the ground I think is right. _THIRTIETH_ Let the thing be pressed. _MAY_ _Two principles have stood face to face from the beginning of time and will ever continue to struggle. The one is the common right of humanity; the other is the divine right of kings._ _FIRST_ Revolutionize through the ballot box. _SECOND_ Repeal all past history,--you still can not repeal human nature. _THIRD_ Capital has its rights, which are as worthy of protection as other rights. _FOURTH_ Teach men that what they can not take by an election, neither can they take by war. _FIFTH_ I authorize no bargains, and will be bound by none. _SIXTH_ When a man is sincerely penitent for his misdeeds, and gives satisfactory evidence of the same, he can safely be pardoned. _SEVENTH_ If destruction be our lot, it must spring up among ourselves. _EIGHTH_ In a democracy, where the majority rule by the ballot through the forms of law, physical rebellions are radically wrong, unconstitutional, and are treason. _NINTH_ Let us be friends, and treat each other like friends. _TENTH_ If I was less thin-skinned I should get along much better. _ELEVENTH_ We will talk over the merits of the case. _TWELFTH_ Nothing shall be wanting on my part, if sustained by the American people and God. _THIRTEENTH_ Are you not over-cautious? _FOURTEENTH_ The severest justice may not always be the best policy. _FIFTEENTH_ The rule of a minority, as a permanent arrangement, is wholly inadmissible. _SIXTEENTH_ One poor man, colored though he be, with God on his side, is stronger against us than the hosts of the Rebellion. _SEVENTEENTH_ Never fear, victory will come. _EIGHTEENTH_ The Lord has not deserted me thus far, and He is not going to now. _NINETEENTH_ I remember my mother's prayers and they have always followed me. They have clung to me all my life. _TWENTIETH_ Are you strong enough? _TWENTY-FIRST_ If I do not go away from here a wiser man, I shall go away a better man. _TWENTY-SECOND_ I know that liberty is right. _TWENTY-THIRD_ You must not give me the praise--it belongs to God. _TWENTY-FOURTH_ It has always been a sentiment with me that all mankind should be free. _TWENTY-FIFTH_ I don't pretend to be bright. _TWENTY-SIXTH_ It is only by the active development of events that character and ability can be tested. _TWENTY-SEVENTH_ I remember a good story when I hear it, but I never invented anything original: I am only a retail dealer. _TWENTY-EIGHTH_ Few men are tried, or so many would not fit their places so badly. _TWENTY-NINTH_ Preach God and liberty to the "bulls" and "bears." _THIRTIETH_ The Union is older than any of the States. _THIRTY-FIRST_
