Original Note:
The Lincoln quote is incomplete and taken out of context. He was merely saying that above all else his priority was to save the US. Here the full quote: https://www.abrahamlincolnonline.org/lincoln/speeches/greeley.htm The quote from Lee is unverified. No primary sources exist that confirm he ever actually said this.
