He remained for his standards, even when they were disliked, for instance, when he restricted the Mexican War in Congress and later when he demanded battling to spare the Union. Nor did he fear for his own particular life. He routinely went around Washington with no security subtle element, and he confronted the mortal risk when he went by soldiers at the front. Lincoln was also a man of humor. Miller states, “Telling stories was only part of it; he was also "sociable," "companionable," "amiable," “gregarious'; he "liked lively, jovial company, where there was plenty of fun and no drunkeness.” Abe was a cheerful boy-a witty boy-was humoroous always. He made fun and cracked his jokes making all happy but the jokes were few and at no mans expense. He was the most entertaining person I ever knew. The more I became acquainted with him the more humorous I found him to be. The open frank manner of Mr. Lincoln in his youthful days coupled with a flow of good humor and great witticism, always made him a welcome member of any group. (Miller
