Quote provided by Abraham Lincoln in his "Letter to John Stuart" written January 23, 1841


"I am now the most miserable man living
If what I feel were equally distributed to the whole human family
There would not be one cheerful face on the earth
Whether I shall ever be better I can not tell; I awfully forebode I shall not
(To remain as I am is impossible)
I must die or be better, it appears to me"

- Abraham Lincoln
