I know that all three of you listeners love this Abraham Lincoln stuff, so here's the tenth chapter in the series.
The quote that I'm turning upside-down is at the end of the story.
Abraham smiled and leered over his old enemy Senator Douglas."So, will you be my friend now?" said Lincoln.
"Never!" shouted the bloody-faced Douglas. "I will never yield!"
Lincoln kicked Douglas in the ribs, and Douglas howled in pain.
"Friends?' offered Lincoln, reaching down to the bloody and ragged Senator. "Please?"
"Never!" wheezed the wobbly Douglas.
Lincoln hit him with a chair, knocking Douglas out.
Lincoln had him dragged back to the dungeon.
"Rest, my enemy," said Lincoln. "We begin fresh tomorrow morning."
Sure, you can destroy your enemies by making friends of them, but where's the fun in that?
Get it?
