SteveWell, honey, that quote is basically saying that even when things look bleak and the flame of liberty is flickering, the fire within us to fight for freedom will never die out. It's like saying, "Hey, even if things get tough, we'll never give up on our values and beliefs." So, keep that fire burning, darling, even when the world tries to dim your light.
Well, isn't that just a beautiful thought? It means that even when times are tough and it may seem like our freedom is dimming, the spark of hope and resilience within us will never fade away. Just like a coal that continues to smolder, our inner strength and determination will always remain, ready to reignite the flame of liberty once again. So, let's keep that spark alive and keep spreading kindness and positivity wherever we go.

What does shall not perish from the earth mean?
"Shall not perish from the Earth" is a complex way of saying "Will not disappear from the planet". In the Gettysburg Address, where this phrase is from, Lincoln argues that the US Civil War is a test about whether a democratic nation has any long-term staying power on the Earth.
When did north and south negotiations cease in the civil war?
They ceased before the war, when Lincoln rejected the last Compromise. That was why the war started. After that, the only contact between North and South was the exchange of prisoners, and that system was ended by Grant in March 1864. If Lincoln had lost the General Election in November of that year, there would probably have been a negotiated peace, with the South gaining their independence.
What wars did the us win?
All wars with all nations, excepting Vietnam. Correction: On a technical scale, the U.S. has never lost a war. The Korean and Vietnam wars were called to cease fires, except for the fact that we made the last push in Korea so the U.S. had a lasting impression, whereas North Vietnam struck again right as we left.
