Ok. You need to hear Lincoln quotes! 20 best quotes - ruclips.net/video/KVnakF-IHgg/видео.html One of him: "The most reliable way to predict the future is to create it." - Abraham Lincoln
You're absolutely right. Many eyewitnesses, who lived well into the 20th Century, said just that. His own surviving son, Robert, didn't die until 1926.
If you can believe Hal Holbrook, one of his best imitators, he had an Orville Redenbacker type of voice. Just like George S. Patton. We like to believe that they had deep voices, but often they did not.
Lincoln had a high pitched voice - Even as a young man - He had a commanding presence - Lincoln was often called upon to tell a story - That's what they had for entertainment back then - Lincoln was Postmaster in New Salem and he also ran the Lincoln and Berry store - Splitting logs - Surveying land - Lincoln was a superb storyteller - Also noted for telling stories while he rode the circuit practicing Law in Illinois - Lincoln was plagued by melancholy all his life - His Mother and Sister died relatively young - Father borderline abusive - Lincoln did not even attend his Father's funeral - Son Willie died at 11 - And Eddie died at 3 yrs of age - The Girl that Lincoln loved in New Salem = Ann Rutledge - Died at 22 - Lincoln said he told stories to offset his tendency to be sad or depressed . . .
I have heard he wrote the Gettysburg Address on an envelope on the train on the way there. He only spoke for a couple of minutes. Yet that speech is on a wall in DC, enshrined forever. Who remembers the previous speaker's two hour speech? No one. Lincoln's speech is etched in eternity.
This is untrue. An old man interviewed in the 1920s was a child attending the Gettysburg Address. He said that Lincoln's voice was high and squeaky but that the President was such a speaker that within a few moments of his beginning to address the crowd, everyone was enamoured and unconscious of his voice's tenor.
@@steveculbert4039 Eh, exactly WHAT IS untrue? Lincoln's voice WAS high pitched and squeaky. And you've already agreed that it was so. Pls explain the rest of your post...confusing in a way.
@@kwebb121765 A deep voice is either bass or baritone. Tenor is between baritone and soprano (in males falsetto). I read no deep voice in orig op's post, so...
Daniel Day-Lewis did his research before playing Lincoln in the eponymous movie. Contemporaries wrote that Lincoln's voice was higher in pitch than was expected on meeting him
I think DDL probably nailed his voice to a t. The fact that he interviewed people born in the same area Lincoln was born is incredible attention to detail.
So, he went to Bostic, North Carolina were his biological father, Abraham Enloe conceived him with his white adolescent servant girl, Nancy? Then, he went just over the border into Kentucky to Thomas Lincoln's neighborhood? Thos. Lincoln was a "friend" of Enloe, and in need of a wife, being recently widowed, and took the pregnant Nancy off Enloe's hands & to himself as a wife, being financially subsidized by Enloe for a few months to offset Nancy's bearing Enloe's offspring. BTW, those that wd dispute the veracity of these facts ought to look at a photos & contemporary descriptions of Enloe & Lincoln. Abraham Enloe had little schooling but, was very quick-witted, also tall & lanky. Thos. Lincoln was short & squatty, and described as rather quiet & dull-witted. Little wonder that Lincoln avoided speaking-of, or acknowledging his origins. T
Well that’s also patently false, JayDubby. Thomas Lincoln was not recently widowed. He didn’t become a widow until Nancy died, and since that is Abraham’s mother, your story is bullshit, too.
There is a recording of a French woman singing in 1860. If that machine she was using reached the United States, we could have heard what President Lincoln sounded like.
It was way less refined, you look at what the French were working on from the 1850s onward and even the most restored audio remains almost useless. Queen Victoria had her voice recorded but even that was barely intelligible, it is with Benjamin Harrison (1889-1893) who’s audio can actually be heard and understood, his predecessor and successor would not get his voice recorded (contrary to popular belief) but McKinley onward would be very intelligible (less so with Harding however). My point is that in spite of being partially existent across seas, it’s current state and and many future iterations would not have made a difference. Admittedly the topics of Photographic, motion picture, and audio history are quite fascinating, really fun to research!
In retrospect, I sometimes think, Lincoln's getting shot, and dying comparatively quickly was... GOD saying, " You are sooooo tired of all this phenomenal RESPONSIBILITY, COME NOW, HOME TO MY GARDEN, YOU GREAT AND LOYAL SOUL ❤"... "YOUR JOB ON EARTH IS DONE"❤ "COME NOW TO YOUR MUCH-DESERVED ETERNAL REWARD" ❤.
Based on what many experts have said, Lincoln’s voice was not “deep and gravelly” but rather higher pitched than one would have expected. Daniel Day-Lewis researched long and hard and eventually “found” Lincoln’s voice. He did an outstanding job.
My parents were born in 1917 and 1921, and one of the things that I found in a box, was a book that my mom had about Abraham Lincoln. It was published in 1865. It is an original edition. It is called “The Life Service Martyrdom and Funeral of Abraham Lincoln”. I think I might’ve just found a gem!
His voice was actually pretty powerful, I remember hearing his speech back in 1860 and I was truly blown away on how much authority but yet so calmly he spoke. His words really got to you back then, man time flies.
There's an old wax cylinder recording from the 1860's in which he says the following: "The money cow prays upon the nation in times of peace & conspires against its citizens in times of adversity until the wealth is adjudicated in a few hands & the republic is destroyed It is more oppressive than monarchy, more demanding than autocracy & more selfish than burocracy"
They never recorded Lincoln’s voice, apparently the early tech existed but they never recorded Lincoln, there is a recording of Benjamin Harrison as well as Teddy Roosevelt, and I think possibly even Grover Cleveland, and William Howard Taft,
Daniel day Lewis said he goes into a spiritual relationship with something that basically possesses him , like a force which takes over his mind body and soul ... which leads him to finding the right voice , and it makes sense because every single one of his movies all the directors praise him because he quite literally, becomes the character he plays , he's considered to be "holy grale of actors" said Martin Scorsese right after making gangs of new York
Oh, the naivety. He literally thought black people were biologically interior and would've kept slavery to preserve the Union. He suspending civil rights. His treatment of indigenous folks was horrible, I could go on…
Almost every part of this is wrong. His high pitch and almost shrill voice, however, was not said to have been pleasant to the ears but it was many times remarked to have the surprising benefit of carrying across crowds in public speaking engagements. While his voice wasn't calming, his direct eloquence and story telling were said to be captivating.
That's true. I have no recollection of hearing Lincoln speak. And if I did, I wouldn't admit it. The only person alive today who has heard Lincoln speak is St. Germain. And he's living incognito in Northern California on pensions awarded him by noble houses in the 18th Century. And SSI, of course.
Everything I've read about Lincoln's voice was that it was somewhat high, and a bit raspy. When I saw Daniel Day Lewis bring this man to life, the voice did NOT disappoint. It was exactly as I'd imagined.
The histories I’ve read all say he had a high voice. A journalist in 1860 NYC said it was so high that the audience began to laugh, but that subsided when he made important points. Nowhere have I ever heard his voice was deep and gravely.
@StuMarston Instead of remaining an embarrassing moron, actually try to learn something that you should have known years ago. Its not wild to know that kids pick up language with their surrounding. They also pick up behaviors.
My ancestors KNEW Lincoln, and described his voice as higher-pitched than one would expect of a man of his stature, and was easily recognized in a crowd. These men knew him as he rode the judicial circuit as well as when they served as delegates at political conventions.
Every historical description I've ever read said his voice was high, with a folksy, country accent! It was his humor & intelligence that won people over!
Interesting. My great-grandfather actually heard him speak once, and was quite shocked by how high-pitched and squeaky his voice was. In fact, when the Spielberg movie came out, I was amazed that Daniel Day Lewis had correctly adopted a high-pitched voice. The cheap and easier route would’ve been to use a deep voice, as if the Lincoln Memorial was talking.
I think the whole movie was depressing. DDL isn’t even tall; he isn’t even American - playing the most iconic American ever. And Mary Lincoln, how she was portrayed? Don’t get me started.
Lincoln's son, Tod, was to become the CEO of a major USA RailRoad company; where, such was during the later 1800's and maybe into the early 1900's. Was the voice of this son ever recorded? If yes, IMO, that would potentially be a more reliable starting point for "learning" the characteristics of his father's voice.
Lincoln’s voice was high-pitched, nasally and Western, almost to the point of being distracting until the listener grew accustomed to it. And having learned to speak outdoors, before large and noisy crowds, you bet he could be clearly heard from long distances. His voice has been compared to a trumpet.
“Did the audience realize, that soft November afternoon, that they were listening to the greatest speech that had ever fallen from human lips up to that time? No most of his hearers were merely curious: they had never seen nor heard a President of the United States, they strained their necks to look at Lincoln, a high, thin voice, and that he spoke with a Southern accent.” -Dale Carnegie, Lincoln The Unknown

I saw a special about the civil war as a kid and the old timer Federal veteran ( in his 90's ) interviewed said, Lincoln sounded exactly like the actor Walter Brennan who was in movies as a young man , when the civil war veteran was still alive . Very interesting!
Daniel Day Lewis, who played Lincoln in the movie Lincoln used a rather high toned voice based upon numerous recollections of LIncoln's voice being higher than normal; certainly not deep and gravely.
I've read a number of accounts that Lincoln's voice was on the higher end of the scale. But then remember when he spoke in public there was no amplification, so he would have been raising his voice, and therefore the tone of the voice too. Only one president in my memory had a deep voice: Richard Nixon.
this is highly incorrect. Lincoln was considered to have a high pitched and reedy voice that made people ridicule some of his speeches. Also the first ever voice recording of anyone was april 9th 1860 which was a 20 second audio recording of a woman's voice. Since Lincoln was president from March 4, 1861 - April 15, 1865 this means it is perfectly possible to hear Lincoln's voice on a recording. Of im not mistaken there is a recording of lincoln giving a debate speech against his opponent before an election here on RUclips
I could be that he tended to speak above his natural pitch. This often lends a distinctive texture. They're able to drop down to the lower register, but they just dont do it very often.
I believe there was this live tv channel of someone with a audio tape of George Washingtons voice and he dropped the tape and it broke and they lost the audio and it was the only audio of his voice
The phonograph wasn’t the first audio recording invention. In fact there was rudimentary and experimental equipment in France that was recorded in 1863
If there is video of him talking, it is sometimes possible to measure the subtle vibrations in solid objects to re-create the real audio and thus the real voice! However the film might not be good enough. Its a thought anyway. Thanks.

Right?
I believe he had a high pitched voice from accounts. So which is it? Deep or high pitched?
I will look into this more. some reports are one way and some are the other, part 2 video coming soon.
That's what I have always read too.
I have read and watched many shows about Lincoln and have always heard he had a high pitch voice too.
If you can believe Hal Holbrook, one of his best imitators, he had an Orville Redenbacker type of voice. Just like George S. Patton.
We like to believe that they had deep voices, but often they did not.
Exactly 💯 CORRECT !
Most historians describe Lincoln’s voice as high
I heard Lincoln's voice was a high pitched squeaky sounding voice, similar to Theodore Roosevelt's voice.
It does kinda surprising
All accounts say Lincoln had a high pitched voice . . .

And he spoke super fast, he delivered the Gettysburg address in just a couple minutes. These AI videos suck ****s.
@vagung TBF, that speech wasn't very long anyways.

It was high piercing it's been documented by many sources. Not sure if it had a Kentucky tone or an Illinois tone to it.
I’ve read that his voice was higher pitched, which was useful as it carried greater distance in a time when microphones weren’t invented.
I always read his voice was unusually high, and got "higher," when he was excited.

The phonograph wasn’t the first audio recording invention. In fact there was rudimentary and experimental equipment in France that was recorded in 1863
It want deep. It was high and nasally. A sharp contrast to his massive frame.
Ronald Reagan's voice; same. Soft , but powerful.
If there is video of him talking, it is sometimes possible to measure the subtle vibrations in solid objects to re-create the real audio and thus the real voice! However the film might not be good enough. Its a thought anyway. Thanks.
I support and will obey Abraham Lincoln Forever!
Jit you got it all wrong, I hit puberty at the age of 42.
Lincoln had hight pitched voice when he was young but when he became older it became deeper
Did anyone who heard Lincoln speak and suggest someone who was very similar to someone that is recorded?
Waste of time- they didn’t even summon Abe from the dead so we could hear him speak 😤😤😤
I can’t believe that Abraham Lincoln was a GAF!!!!!!!!
