“In giving freedom to the slave we assure freedom to the free - honorable alike in what we give and what we preserve…Other means may succeed; this could not fail. The way is plain, peaceful, generous, just - a way which if followed the world will forever applaud and God must forever bless.” - Abraham Lincoln
