While a young man, his involvement in local politics grew, and he became interested in law, studied for and was admitted into Illinois bar in 1837. Physically, he was very tall (6’4”), strong and had a reputation for being a good wrestler as well as having skill with an ax. It was said that he avoided hunting because he didn’t like killing animals, even for food and is now noted as one of our country’s most famous vegetarians.

- Abraham Lincoln  (1809-1865)

 

"The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew, and act anew. We must disenthrall ourselves, and then we shall save our country."

 

"The demon of intemperance ever seems to have delighted in sucking the blood of genius and of generosity."
