Abraham Lincoln actually said...

"It is the duty of all aliens residing in the United States to submit to and obey the laws and respect the authority of the Government."

"But they can not be required to take an oath of allegiance to this Government, because it conflicts with the duty they owe to their own sovereigns."

"There is much in the bill to which I perceive no objection."

"I think the greater punishment can not be constitutionally inflicted in a different form for the same offense."
