The extremists railed and accused him of perfidy, they cited his own de- nunciations of slavery, they reminded him of his biblical quotation that a house divided against itself could not stand. But he saw and did his duty.
With his love of peace and his love of liberty, he would have brought about the peaceful ending of slavery if the South could have known him then as it knew him later. He struck slavery, «9 not as soon as he would have liked to do so, but when slavery itself com- pelled the b

Thus, in his greater wisdom, he ac- complished what was desired, so that the reasonable world could not com- plain of his time or method of action.
When that time came, he had to brave another storm of criticism. As he re- sisted the extremist at one period so he resisted the conservative at the other and did his duty as he saw it without regard to either.
Lincoln had that self-confidence with- out which no man can be great. He had the moral strength to do what he con- ceived to be right, regardless of the op- position of friend or foe.
