Famous quotes containing the words republican and/or union:

    “A Republican by principle and devotion, I will, until my death, oppose all Royalists ... and all enemies of my Government and the Republic.”
    —Jean Baptiste Bernadotte (1763–1844)

    “My paramount object in this struggle is to save the Union, and is not either to save or to destroy slavery. If I could save the Union without freeing any slave, I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves, I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone, I would also do that.”
    —Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
