It's time for another twisted Abraham Lincoln quote, folks...
After much shouting, Abraham Lincoln could take no more.He stood face-to-face with General Grant.
Well, as close to face-to-face with General Grant as one could manage . Grant's beard presented a formidable barrier, his whiskey breath even more so.
Not wanting to waste more time arguing, Abe put his hand on his heart and said, "I now wish to make the personal acknowledgment that you were right, and I was wrong."
Grant grunted, holstered his guns, and leaned over a railing to throw up.
Abe would wait until he'd passed out before doing what he wanted to do anyway.
I'm reading that Manhunt book for inspiration, but Lincoln doesn't get many quotes in before his head's blown off. Oh well.
