#GettysburgAddress by #GeorgeCarlin
Just in time for #MemorialDay, the original text of the speech by #AbrahamLincoln:
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth, upon this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived, and so dedicated, can long endure.

On this day in history Abraham #Lincoln delivered the #GettysburgAddress.
He wasn't the main speaker that day, Edward Everett was. He spoke for 2 hours about the significance of the battle. Lincoln's address was only 10 sentences and he delivered it so quickly there are no photographs of him speaking.
Interestingly, the speech itself speaks to the insignificance of anything he could say that day.

#onthisday in 1863, President #Lincoln delivered the #GettysburgAddress. What can I say about the #Gettysburg Address that has not already been said? I can only undergird that is is probably one of the most stirring and concise pieces of American rhetoric in the English language:

And here's the early draft. Some presidents are #writers.

On November 19 1863, #AbrahamLincoln said this. It is worth rereading and respeaking and reprinting and, yes, reposting in perpetuity. In fact, we need to hear it and see it and speak it now even more than we did then.
The New York Times account shows where applause interrupted the president.
