Lincoln 365: A Primer in Patriotism as Lived by Abraham Lincoln

By Arnold Kunst

"Lincoln 365" is calendar-based and is designed to introduce the 21st century to this mountain of a man by contrasting him to, say, FDR, or to Leonardo, but in short, easily-digested doses - one per day. The hope is we might see the world we live in through his eyes. You'll be intrigued and astounded by this remarkably unassuming man, and maybe enticed to bend your psyche in his direction. April 27: "As our case is new so we must think anew and act anew." Abraham Lincoln "You're never too old to grow younger." Mae West July 20: "I never had a policy. I just tried to do my very best each and every day." Abraham Lincoln "Sell your cleverness and purchase bewilderment." Viktor Frankl September 6: "Well, for those who like that sort of thing I should think it is just about the sort of thing they would like." Abraham Lincoln "All the world's a stage and most of us are desperately unrehearsed." Sean O'Casey September 18: "Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them?" Abraham Lincoln "The world is full of wonderful things waiting patiently for our wits to grow sharper." Anonymous October 23: "My father taught me now to work, but not to love it. I never did like to work, and I don't deny it. I'd rather read, tell stories, crack jokes, talk, laugh - anything but work." Abraham Lincoln "There is no problem so big it cannot be run away from." Charles M. Schulz November 5 "The time comes upon every public man when it is best for him to keep his lips closed." Abraham Lincoln "Noise proves nothing. Often a hen who has merely laid an egg cackles as if she laid an asteroid." Mark Twain December 25: "To ease another's heartache is to forget one's own." Abraham Lincoln "Ultimately magic finds you, if you let it." Tony Wheeler
