Well, it seems to me Lincoln, I suppose, is kind of a model of a particular sort of presidency, a presidency that first of all is elected by a minority of the votes.
David Herbert Donald
What I thought we ought to try to do in a book like this is to focus closely on Lincoln, himself, to see what he knew, how he knew it, how he came to make the decisions that he did, and how he implemented them.
David Herbert Donald
When I was a child I had a crush on Abraham Lincoln. Why I would choose to reveal this, I know not.
Julia Roberts

John George Nicolay
You cannot be President of the United States if you don't have faith. Remember Lincoln, going to his knees in times of trial in the Civil War and all that stuff.
George H. W. Bush

Elvis Costello
