About This Quote

Abraham Lincoln said, "I would rather go out of politics having the feeling that I had done what was right than stay in with the approval of all men, knowing in my heart that I have acted as I ought not to." Abraham Lincoln’s life is a good example of his quote. When he leaves office, he knows he took the right path and that his actions did the right thing. That’s more important than anything else.
