Policy

I never had a policy; I have just tried to do my very best each and every day.
-Abraham Lincoln

Conversion

Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them?
- Abraham Lincoln

Happy

Most people are about as happy as they make up their minds to be.
- Abraham Lincoln

The basic thing is that everyone wants happiness, no one wants suffering. And happiness mainly comes from our own attitude, rather than from external factors. If your own mental attitude is correct, even if you remain in a hostile atmosphere, you feel happy.

- The Dalai Lama
