I am in love with the fact that Lincoln inspired the cinematography of The Terror

Academy Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role:

Fondly do we hope, fervently do we pray, that this mighty scourge of war may speedily pass away. Yet, if God wills that it continue until all the wealth piled by the bondsman's two hundred and fifty years of unrequited toil shall be sunk, and until every drop of blood drawn with the lash shall be paid by another drawn with the sword, as was said three thousand years ago, so still it must be said "the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether." With malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation's wounds, to care for him who shall have borne the battle and for his widow and his orphan, to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations.

Daniel Day-Lewis as Abraham Lincoln in Lincoln (2012, dir. Steven Spielberg)

Manhunt (ep.7)

"Somehow. Somehow. Somehow... Every party, every... And now, four years more in this terrible house reproaching us. He was a very sick little boy. We should've cancelled that reception, shouldn't we?" "We didn't know how sick he was." "I knew, I knew, I saw that night he was dying."

not sure if James Spader in "Lincoln" is anyone else's cup of tea, but he surely is mine

JOSEPH GORDON LEVITT as ROBERT TODD LINCOLN.

I have to do this! And I will! Or I will feel ashamed of myself for the rest of my life. Whether or not you fought is what's gonna matter. And not just to other people, but to myself! I won’t be you, Pa, I can’t do that, but I don’t want to be nothing!
