Famous quotes containing the words character and/or states:
“When one walks, one is brought into touch first of all with the essential relations between ones physical powers and the character of the country; one is compelled to see it as its natives do. Then every man one meets is an individual. One is no longer regarded by the whole population as an unapproachable and uninteresting animal to be cheated and robbed.”

“With steady eye on the real issue, let us reinaugurate the good old central ideas of the Republic. We can do it. The human heart is with usGod is with us.

—Abraham Lincoln (18091865)
