With malice toward none, with charity for all. Abe Lincoln resides in midtown Tulsa.

I thought it appropriate to share this on election day. This wood-carved statue of Abe Lincoln is in our neighbor's front yard in the Buena Vista subdivision of midtown Tulsa.

"With malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation's wounds, to care for him who shall have borne the battle and for his widow and his orphan, to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations."

The excerpt of the Second Inaugural Address chosen for the stump is written above and included in the photo below.

Lori, Abe Lincoln is still one of my favorite Presidents and I'll never forget when in Washington D.C. with my brother, climbing the stairs to his monument and the overwhelming rush of emotion when I finally entered the room and saw him sitting there...thank you for sharing this today! It is wonderful!

Hi Lori -- you get the feeling that Preisdent Lincoln truly felt the words he delivered so simply yet eloquently. We should all remember "With malice toward none, with charity for all"

Wanda - I've seen the monument many times - still get that overwhelming rush of emotion each time!

Lottie - a good phrase to remember, indeed. I pass this statue daily.

I think Linclons enduring appeal is his humility and the fact that he was a true citizen president, not a prodigal son.

Matt - a true citizen president - what a concept. Can we ever get back to the concept of true public SERVANTS?

Lori....That is really a nice carved statue. Lincoln had such a down to earth, for the people approach to everything.
