Soul Food: Week of November 3, 2024

This week’s respectfully offered daily meditations:

Sunday: Any man who took Lincoln for a simple-minded man would very soon wake up with his back in a ditch. William Billy Herndon

Monday: I am not bound to win [an election], but I am bound to be true. I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live up to what light I have. Abraham Lincoln

Tuesday: You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today.

Wednesday: Let every man remember that to violate the law is to trample on the blood of his father, and to tear the charter of his own and his children’s liberty.

Thursday: Resolve to be honest at all events; and if in your own judgment you cannot be an honest lawyer, resolve to be honest without being a lawyer.

Friday: The Union must be preserved in the purity of its principles.

Saturday: A house divided cannot stand.
