Lincoln's Thoughts Still Apply
A thought expressed by Abraham Lincoln nearly a
century ago could well be applied today on locai, state,
national and international problems that still are "try
ing men’s souls ":
"The true rule, in determining to embrace or reject
anything, is not whether it have any evil in it, but wheth
er it have more of evil than of good There are few
things wholly evil or wholly good. Almost everything,
especially of government policy, is an inseparable com
pound of the two, so that our best judgment of the pre
ponderance between them is continually demanded.-’
