“See to it that your inner sense of peace is so deep and secure that troubles which would dislocate lesser men leave you annoyed, perhaps, but ever serene.” - Arnold Kunst

“Honest old Abe, when the war first began,  

Denied abolition was part of his plan;  

Honest old Abe has since made a decree,  

The war must go on till the slaves are all free.  

As both can't be honest, will some one tell how  

If honest Abe then, he is honest Abe now?” - Civil War doggerel
