Quote context

[...]

- Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth, on this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

- Why, that's it. Bill, don't tell me you know it.

- How does it go, Bill?

- Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth, on this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

- Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived, and so dedicated, can long endure.

- We are now on a great battlefield of that war.

- We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives, that that nation might live.

- It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

- But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow, this ground.

- The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it far beyond our poor power to add or detract.

- The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here.

- It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced.
