"'Make love not war'? By the looks of you, you don't look like you could do much of either."

Abraham Lincoln
"If I were two-faced, would I be wearing this one?"

Alexander Hamilton is much more popular now. Nothing like a Musical to revive the reputation of a scoundrel bastard son of a Scottish peddler.
