Thought of the day:
I've lost a few of my Quotes/Thoughts of the day. Mostly my really old ones. Maybe some are on my old I-Mac if I could get it to turn on but whatever. I've sent them out in the world and perhaps they are still out there. I think we need to learn that nothing last forever, even us. With that said I decided to post the quote bellow again because I know it's one that's been lost. It's nothing I agree with but I do get an odd/sick kick out of the fact of who said it and how they are known.

Quote of the day:
"I am not nor even have been in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races -- that I am not nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe will forever forbid the two races living together on terms of social and political equality. And inasmuch as they cannot so live, while they do remain together there must be the position of superior and inferior, and I as much as any other man, am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race." Abraham Lincoln, Lincoln-Douglas debate, September 18, 1858
