“It is to deny what the history of the world tells us is true, to suppose that men of ambition and talents will not continue to spring up amongst us. And when they do, they will as naturally seek the gratification of their ruling passion as others have done before them…[They] thirst and burn for distinction; and if possible, [they] will have it, whether at the expense of emancipating slaves or enslaving free men.” —Abraham Lincoln
