Glad Brand

Famous quotes containing the words glad and/or brand:

    I am glad I made the late race. It gave me a hearing on the great and durable question of the age, which I could have had in no other way; and though I now sink out of view, and shall be forgotten, I believe I have made some marks which will tell for the cause of civil liberty long after I am gone.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    Obligation may be stretched till it is no better than a brand of slavery stamped on us when we were too young to know its meaning.
