Another strange karmic connection having to do with President Lincoln is the fact that Edwin Booth (John Wilke's brother) once saved the life of Robert Lincoln (the President's son) on a train platform in Jersey City at the beginning of the Civil War. Because of this, Edwin Booth was invited to give a command performance in the White House and forever after was a Lincoln sympathizer, even though he had been raised in the South.
All these facts add up to more than mere coincidence to me. It appears that history does indeed repeat itself. Perhaps it is the same cast of characters playing the same roles over and over again until they are played right. Perhaps William Shakespeare was right all along: All the world is a stage and we are but the players.
