Daily Dose

From Speeches and Writings. 1832 - 1858, by Abraham Lincoln

INTEREST

"But, say you, it is a question of interest; and, if you can make it your interest, you have the right to enslave another.  Very well.  And if he can make it his interest, he has the right to enslave you."

From a Fragment on Slavery
