As a young man, Lincoln said, "...I have no other so great as that of being truly esteemed by my fellow man, by rendering myself worthy of their esteem." He served in the state legislature at Vandalia from 1834-39, before rising to national prominence as President of the United States, and this representation of him in bronze symbolizes the esteem in which he is held by people everywhere who cherish liberty and justice.
