I have endured a great deal of ridicule without much malice; and have received a great deal of kindness, not quite free from ridicule. I am used to it.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

“Men of integrity are generally pretty obstinate, in adhering to an opinion once adopted.”

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
