From “Lincoln 365,” by Arnold Kunst:
December 15
'A house divided against itself
cannot stand. I believe this government cannot endure permanently half-slave
and half-free. I do not expect the Union to be dissolved - I do not expect the
house to fall - but I do expect it will cease to be divided. It will become all
one thing or all the other.'
- Abraham Lincoln
'Leadership does not always wear
the harness of compromise.'
- Woodrow Wilson
