Today is Presidents’ Day, a federal holiday where we honor George Washington’s birthday, Abraham Lincoln and more.
As one of our nation’s most revered presidents and predominant symbols of freedom, Lincoln had plenty to say regarding life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Here are seven Abraham Lincoln quotes to share on Facebook, Twitter and other social media sites:
- “Be sure to put your feet in the right place, then stand firm..”
- “Character is like a tree and reputation like a shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.”
- “Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be.”
- “The best way to destroy an enemy is to make him a friend.”
- “Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any other.”
- “Don’t worry when you are not recognized, but strive to be worthy of recognition.”
- “Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.”
