Abraham Lincoln quotes on leadership

I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true.
I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live by the light that I have.
I must stand with anybody that stands right, and stand with him while he is right, and part with him when he goes wrong.
You have to do your own growing no matter how tall your grandfather was.
Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man’s character, give him power.
Adhere to your purpose and you will soon feel as well as you ever did.
On the contrary, if you falter, and give up, you will lose the power of keeping any resolution, and will regret it all your life.
Always bear in mind that your own resolution to success is more important than any other thing.
Be sure you put your feet in the right place, then stand firm.
You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today.
