At the age of 9, his beloved mother died unfortunately. He and his sister comforted their mother's soul in heaven by reading her favorite Bible passage.

When his father remarried, his stepmother brought some furniture and three books to her new home: Webster's Dictionary, Robinson Crusoe and Arabian Nights. He read these books again and again.

Celebrity Story Lincoln Chapter III When Lincoln appointed Commander Scott as the senior general of the logistics department, it caused an uproar in the entire American military management. Because Scott is a general who often loses. This time, due to his serious command mistakes in the battle, the whole army was wiped out. After Scott was recalled by Lincoln, he not only refused to be dismissed for investigation, but also made him an official and knighted. People are puzzled by Lincoln's abnormal practices, and there are many doubts. What the hell is going on here?

A senior general specifically asked Lincoln for advice. Lincoln smiled and told the general, "The answer will be revealed in the years to come. There is no doubt about it. I believe my judgment can't be wrong! " Later, no one mentioned it again.

More than a year passed quickly. One day, the senior general received a notice from Lincoln to attend the award ceremony. At the meeting, Lincoln personally pinned a second-class military medal on Scott's chest, which immediately caused an uproar at the meeting. Lincoln explained with a smile: "The question that everyone has been holding back for more than a year can give a complete answer today-that is, my orientation of employing people has changed from" useless "to" practical ". Although General Scott fought bravely, he was impatient. Without the necessary calm qualities of a conductor, he made a military taboo. It is not surprising that he often suffers from failure. Although he lacks patience and is not suitable for war, it is precisely this fatal weakness in war that is his most practical advantage. Because wartime supplies need to be timely and sufficient. Many superior fighters were lost, mostly because the supply of military supplies could not keep up. It was by taking advantage of his impatience that I arranged him to work in the logistics supply department. Because impatient people generally don't procrastinate, get tired and delay their work, but act decisively and quickly. It was Scott who played an urgent role in the supply of military supplies. He needed supplies to be transported to the destination as quickly as possible. So that our army can seize the initiative of fighters again and again. Therefore, although Scott did not participate in the battle ahead in the trumpets that won the battle again and again, his contribution is obvious and indispensable! "

Lincoln's voice just fell and applause sounded.

Celebrity story Lincoln Johnston was a famous general during the American Civil War. His bad temper is as famous as his military talent.

Once, after winning a battle, Johnston wrote to Lincoln to report the results. But he only mentioned the number of casualties and the area of land under control, and ended with a few words. After receiving his letter, Lincoln thought it was too short, so he wrote back and asked him to add more details. Johnston's anger rose at once, and he wrote another letter impatiently, which said, "Mr. President, after winning this war, we haven't collected six cows yet. Please tell us what to do with them. "

When Lincoln received this letter, he immediately realized that the general was angry. After laughing, he replied with such an "instruction": "Let the soldiers drink milk quickly!"

The letter was sent out soon, and Johnston smiled when he received the reply. Before, he was worried that his momentary impulse would bring an embarrassing situation. I didn't expect Lincoln to follow suit and give such a humorous reply. Johnston was deeply moved by Lincoln's wisdom and immediately praised his subordinates. Lincoln was a clever, generous and humorous man.

5 4 years later, people came to inform Salle that Lincoln had died. The newspaper gave a long introduction to Lincoln's biological mother Nancy Hanks Lincoln. This is natural.

However, someone came to visit Salle and asked her about Abe in her childhood. Salle wants to tell people everything she knows about little Abe, but it is difficult to express her inner feelings in words.

"Abe is a good boy," she just said. "He has never been angry with me, not even his angry face." She choked up, paused for a moment, and then said, "I believe that he really loves me."

Salle Bush Lincoln died on February 65438. Her death went unnoticed in America. For many years, her name never appeared in those books describing abraham lincoln. But now, the hut where Lincoln and his parents lived in Illinois has been listed as a national cultural relic for people to visit.

Now, people finally understand the meaning of this sentence-the "mother" he said is his stepmother Salle.

Celebrity story Lincoln 6 Salle is especially worried about little Abe, although the child always does what she says without saying a word. Once, when Salle was making tortillas, she found Abe looking at her with serious eyes. "I'll never forget that my favorite food is tortillas," he said suddenly, and then ran out. Abe doesn't seem as easy to understand as ordinary children. As Dennis said, "Abe's personality is a bit unusual."

Who would have thought? Perhaps, if Salle had not come to this small house in the backcountry, Abe would not have become a great man in American history. He developed so fast, but he never filled his stomach. Now, if he can eat Salle's delicious food, he will look much stronger. He talks too much and even loves to laugh. He learned to tell humorous stories and liked to tell them to Sarah to see if she would laugh in interesting places.

Soon, Abe graduated from primary school. Tom wants him to stay at home as a helper or help his neighbors and earn 30 cents a day. He warned Abe that to be a good farmer, you don't need to know so many things in books.

However, Salle stood firmly on the side of little Abe and supported him to study. Every morning at dawn, Abe picks up the book; In the evening, he stopped his farm work and went on studying. If he goes to pasture to graze during the day, he will use the horses to eat grass or have a rest, and take the time to read. Once, he got an old law book. As you can imagine, this is really like a gold rush for him! That night, he couldn't wait to read in the firelight, and he was fascinated. Tom urged him to go to bed early so that he could work tomorrow. Salle said, "Let the children have a look." When Abe read too late and fell asleep on the floor, she took a blanket and gently covered him.

Abe also often practices writing. Because there is no paper, he often has to mark on the blackboard in order to remember what he wants to write. Once he got the paper again, he wrote it all out. Later, when Tom and the rest of the family were asleep, he often stood by the fire and read his letters to Salle.

"

Lincoln replied, "Madam, your family has served our country for three generations, and you have made enough contributions to our country. I have deep respect for you. Now can you give others a chance to serve your country? " The woman had nothing to say, so she had to leave quietly.

One day, Secretary of Defense Stanton came to Lincoln and told him angrily that a major general accused him of using insulting language to favor some people.

" But when Stanton folded the letter and prepared to put it in the envelope, Lincoln stopped and said, "What are you going to do with it?" "Send it." Stanton was confused by his question, and so was Zhang Er.

"Stop fooling around," Lincoln said loudly. "You shouldn't send this letter. Throw it in the stove quickly. Write a letter to vent your anger every time you get angry, and then throw it away.

Celebrity Story Lincoln 13 1863 In July, during the American Civil War, a three-day battle took place in Gettysburg near Washington. Although the union army won, it also sacrificed countless soldiers. Several northern states joined forces to establish the National Martyrs Cemetery in Gettysburg to bury those who died in battle.

On the day when the cemetery was completed, a grand ceremony was held, and they invited former Secretary of State Everett to give a speech. Everett is an eloquent expert who is very good at long speeches. His longest speech has reached 2 10 minutes, so you can listen to it. It happened that President Lincoln was engaged in political activities in a nearby city that day, so Everett suggested that the organizers of the ceremony invite Lincoln to "talk casually".

Everyone knows that Everett and Lincoln are political enemies. Everett tried his best to block Lincoln's election, so Everett made up his mind to make a fool of Lincoln in public without preparation. So he gave a speech for two hours from many angles. The speech was full of emotion and emotion, which made all the audience present applaud. Lincoln was well aware of Everett's intentions. After listening to Everett's speech, Lincoln immediately realized that this time he could only make a surprise attack, because Everett had made a very excellent and successful speech, both in the spirit of the fallen soldiers and the significance of the martyrs cemetery, and then he could only talk about it in Kan Kan. How can we build a good relationship with the audience and finally win their applause?

Lincoln decided to win by simplicity. He walked unhurriedly to the stage and said, "What I want to tell you today is that the road leading to the Martyrs Cemetery will be paved with asphalt and a special car will be opened next month."

Lincoln's speech contained only two complete sentences. His first sentence grasped Everett's strengths, and with the subtext of "two hours' speech is undoubtedly a waste of everyone's life", he not only denied Everett, but also made a clever positioning for his ultra-short speech, which saved the day and turned the disadvantage into an advantage at once.

Most importantly, although Everett said a lot, he said nothing about real life. Lincoln had noticed before that the road to the cemetery was still a bumpy gravel road. Lincoln realized that it would be inconvenient for all the people attending the ceremony, so he took the method and deadline to solve this problem as the content of his speech. As a result, he not only got applause from nearly 10,000 people 10 minutes, but even caused a sensation throughout the country.

The newspaper at that time commented: "This is an unprecedented super concise speech. His speech is alive because he considers the most realistic things from the standpoint of the audience! " Even Everett himself couldn't help writing an admiring letter to Lincoln a few days later: "Your wisdom determines that you are an excellent president!" " "

In this regard, Lincoln asked for a review. In this wonderful review, there is the following dialogue. Lincoln asked the witness: Do you swear to see little Armstrong clearly? Yes Lincoln: You are behind the haystack, and little Armstrong is under the big tree. The distance between the two places is twenty or thirty meters. Can you recognize them? Jefferson: I can see it clearly because the moonlight is very bright. Lincoln: Are you sure you didn't see him clearly through his clothes? Forcen: No, I must have seen his face clearly, because the moonlight lit up his face.

Lincoln: Are you sure the time is 1 1? Forcen: I'm absolutely sure, because I went back to my room and looked at the clock. They are 1 1: 00 and 15 respectively. When Lincoln asked about Dari, he turned around and said surprisingly, "I can't help telling everyone that this witness is a complete liar." He asserted that he saw the defendant's face clearly in the moonlight on the night of 1 1 08. Please think about it. It was the first quarter moon of June+10/October 18 in 65438, and the moon had already set at night 1 1. Where is the moonlight? To say the least, maybe he didn't remember the time very accurately, and it was a little early. But at that time, the moonlight shone from west to east, the grass was in the east and the trees were in the west. If the defendant's face is facing the haystack, there can be no moonlight on his face! "There was a silence, followed by applause and cheers. Forcen was caught off guard.

But he defended the client on one condition, that is, the client must be a fair party. Many poor people have no money to pay for their labor, but just tell Lincoln: "I am just, please help me to do justice." Lincoln will defend him for free.

Once, a rich man asked Lincoln to defend him. After listening to the client's statement, Lincoln found that the man was framing a good man, so he said, "I'm sorry, I can't defend you because your behavior is unfair."

The man said, "Mr. Lincoln, I just want you to help me fight this unfair lawsuit." As long as I win the case, you can ask for any reward. "

Lincoln said seriously: "As long as you use a little skill in court defense, your case is easy to win, but the case itself is unfair." If I take your case, when I stand in front of the judge and speak, I will say to myself,' Lincoln, you are lying.' Lies can only be said out loud when you lose your conscience. I can't lose my conscience and I can't lie. So ask someone else. I can't help you "

The man listened and left Lincoln's office silently without saying a word.
