Prohibition will work great injury to the cause of
temperance. It is a species of intemperance within itself, for it goes
beyond the bounds of reason in that it attempts to control a man's appetite
by legislation, and makes a crime out of things that are not crimes. A
Prohibition law strikes a blow at the very principles upon which our government
was founded.
Abraham Lincoln (1809-65), U.S. president. Speech, 18
Dec. 1840, to Illinois House of Representatives.
