Lincoln Quote
Abraham Lincoln: [greeting a pair of visitors from Jefferson City]I heard tell once of a Jefferson City lawyer who had a parrot that would wake him each morning crying out 'today's the day the world shall end as scripture has foretold'. And one day, the lawyer shot him for the sake of peace and quiet I presume, thus fulfilling, for the bird at least, his prophecy. [the guests don't laugh]
