President Lincoln Delivered the Gettysburg Address
November 19, 1863
Lines of the Gettysburg Address have been quoted and referred to time and time again. They are even carved on the walls inside the Lincoln Memorial: "We here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain--that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom--and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
