More from Abraham Lincoln
The question is, will it be wiser to take it as it is and help to improve it, or to reject and disperse it?
If the end brings me out all right, what is said against me won't amount to anything.
If the end brings me out wrong, ten angels swearing I was right would make no difference.
I do the very best I know how--the very best I can; and I mean to keep doing so until the end.
