This quote is often misattributed to Abraham Lincoln. It has not been found in any of his writings. The use of a chiasmus (a rhetorical device reversing word order in successive clauses) is very uncharacteristic of Abraham Lincoln's speech or writing. Quote Investigator (QI) credits {Edward J. Stieglitz} as the originator (although its possible his advertising copywriter was the source).
