The history teacher recommended "Lincoln Biography" in high school, and I wrote it down; I read "The Gettysburg Address" in college, and went to the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC; the impression is of a tall, thin image, with diligence and wisdom manifested in overhead. Coincidentally, I also studied law, but his cunning and eloquence could not be learned.

Today, when I read "Lincoln", I am even more impressed by the jurisprudence of fairness and justice, and how rigorous and meticulous the structure is, supporting the era of freedom and liberation. And "politics" naturally retreats to the "sanctuary" of the legal system under Lincoln's balance. The meaning of war and peace is reflected in the future, and I also realize that only within the framework can it be legitimate and persuasive, and can stand the test.

I happened to hear a quote in "Saving Private Ryan", also said by Lincoln, written to the mother of the fallen soldier, kind and sincere. He is also a responsible father, a reasonable ordinary person. It is only through a lot of running and speaking without fear of hard work, reading and thinking day and night, that I have a firm world view and a kind of belief.

Willing to pay, whether it is their own body, knowledge, or the sacrifice of the army, will be rewarded - black slavery was finally legally abolished in the constitutional amendment. This is a sign of freedom, and the world in less than a hundred years will look completely different. He also predicted that change would be difficult, but the mission entrusted by history did not wait for the wheel of time to take him further.

Fortunately, we don't need to fight now, but we also have less fighting spirit, so we need to change and strive for it. Rare is such a solid superstructure system and the consciousness that develops with it.
