WHEN JUDGE DOUGLAS SAYS THAT WHOEVER, OR WHATEVER COMMUNITY, WANTS SLAVES, THEY HAVE A RIGHT TO HAVE THEM, HE IS PERFECTLY LOGICAL IF THERE IS NOTHING WRONG IN THE INSTITUTION; BUT IF YOU ADMIT THAT IT IS WRONG, HE CANNOT LOGICALLY SAY THAT ANYBODY HAS A RIGHT TO DO WRONG. -- ABRAHAM LINCOLN
OCTOBER 13, 1858 DEBATE AT QUINCY, ILLINOIS
