Abraham Lincoln: "Do the people of the South really entertain fears that a Republican administration would, directly or indirectly, interfere with their slaves, or with them, about their slaves? If they do, I wish to assure you, as once a friend, and still, I hope, not an enemy, that there is no cause for such fears."


This was not a lie. The quote comes from a letter from Abe Lincoln to
Alexander Stephens. Lincoln had previously stated publicly that he had
no intention of doing anything about slavery where it already exists but
would block the spread of slavery to the terrorities.

Another quote from the same letter:

"You think slavery is right and ought to be extended; while we think it
is wrong and ought to be restricted."
