“I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I must stand with anybody that stands right, and stands right, and stands with him while he is right, and part with him when he goes wrong.” - Abraham Lincoln

What this quote means is that he knew he wasn’t going to win at most things but he was being a true person. An example of this quote is when someone helps the poor. This person is being true and has a good heart. One day Abraham was working in a store as a clerk and a lady gave him 6 ¼ cents by accident and when he noticed the error, he closed the store and walked 6 miles to return back the money to the lady. He was kind, generous, and respectful. He was one of the most appreciated and adored presidents to ever have and date. Many people doubted him and disliked. He abolished slavery and was honest no matter what the consequences were. He was always true to his people and always had respect. Always be respectful, generous and kind so people can have respect for you.
