Chhoti si baat part 2

Plainly, the central idea of secession, is the essence of anarchy. Let us then turn this government back into the channel in which the framers of the Constitution originally placed it. July 10, 1858 Speech at Chicago I have borne a laborious, and, in some respects to myself, a painful part in the contest. Through all, I have neither assailed, nor wrestled with any part of the constitution. October 30, 1858 Speech at Springfield Dont interfere with anything in the Constitution. That must be maintained, for it is the only safeguard of our liberties. And not to Democrats alone do I make this appeal, but to all who love these great and true principles. August 27, 1856 Speech at Kalamazoo, Michigan I am exceedingly anxious that this Union, the Constitution, and the liberties of the people shall be perpetuated in accordance with the original idea for which that struggle was made, and I shall be most happy indeed if I shall be an chhoti si baat part 2 instrument in the hands of the Almighty, and of this, his almost chosen people, for perpetuating the object of that great struggle. At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us, it must chhoti si baat part 2 up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its chhoti si baat part 2 and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide. I think to lose Kentucky is nearly the same as to lose the whole game. Kentucky gone, we can not hold Missouri, nor, as I think, Maryland. These all against us, and the job on our hands is too large for us. September 22, 1861 Letter to Orville Browning 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 disentrall ourselves, and then we shall save our country. The proportions of this rebellion were not for a long time understood. I saw that it involved the greatest difficulties, and would call forth all the powers of the whole country. June 2, 1863 Reply to Members of the Presbyterian General Assembly In a word, I would not take any risk of being entangled upon the river, like an ox jumped half over a fence, and liable to be torn by dogs, front and rear, without a fair chance to gore one way or kick the other.
