We call the species "Turteltauben" (Tauben = doves), after the birds' purring we use the same expression for two lovers as well as "turteln" for "to flirt".
Don't know the dialogue but looks like "The Wizard of Oz"

Has to be from the Wizard with those ruby red slippers showing, but I don't know the dialogue either.
I did just learn that there is a Lincoln carriage in the childhood home of Judy Garland (Frances Gumm) in Grand Rapids. Is this trivia question related to the Horse of a Different Color that draws the carriage that takes Dorothy into Oz?

Well done, it is from "The Wizard of Oz" - and both of you score. Now there's another point to win for figuring the dialogue /Lincoln - whatabout.
So far:

Good idea, but my image is from the very scene I am looking for. No horse therein.
Just to clarify and specify - I am looking for a feature of Lincoln that is talked about and "wanted". This time you "officially" may consult the Google.
There is a line in the Scarecrow's song, "[something, something] thinkin', I could be another Lincoln, if I only had a brain."
I did not remember the exact words when I posted the above, and had not resorted to The Google. But after I posted, I checked The Google for the exact words. I was close. The wording of the line was "You could be another Lincoln, if you only had a brain."
(Scarecrow)
I could wile away the hours
Conferrin' with the flowers
Consultin' with the rain
And my head I'd be scratchin'
While my thoughts were busy hatchin'
If I only had a brain
I'd unravel any riddle
For any individ'le
In trouble or in pain
(Dorothy)
With the thoughts you'd be thinkin'
You could be another Lincoln
If you only had a brain
(Scarecrow)
Oh, I would tell you why
The ocean's near the shore
I could think of things I never thunk before
And then I'd sit and think some more
I would not be just a nuffin'
My head all full of stuffin'
My heart all full of pain
I would dance and be merry
Life would be a ding-a-derry
If I only had a brain

Well, I have no brain to offer, but an "earworm" instead (that's what we call a catchy tune that you won't get "rid" of for awhile):

(This is now hopefully pc ladies-first-and-alphabetical order. )
Um, even having provided Eva with the first two photos/questions (which precluded me from guessing), there is none other than Ms. Verge that I would rather be trailing.

Four Calling Birds - Four gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
Well, I'm afraid there's at least one further photo to Ms. Verge's advantage (I will have to think if substitutes...).
This however not - I took this photo of a comic book in an Austrian supermarket and was quite tempted to purchase (but cons prevented - no time, to money, no room to store...).
Who is this lady supposed to be?

Hint #1: Try to figure her profession.
Hint #2: She has been mentioned on the forum as well as an incident that links her to one "Lincoln".
Looks like a singer or dramatic actress of some dimension. Caricature could be of Laura Keene, but I don't get the "M" pin on the dress.
Although it looks nothing like the lady I thought of, I agree with Dennis that the first thought jumps to a singer - and for me, an opera singer. My first thoughts were of Beverly Sills and Leontyne Price, both of whom performed at the Met in Lincoln Center. But that didn't cover the "M" that Dennis noticed. The only "M" that I could come up with was Marian Anderson and her famous performance at the Lincoln Memorial.
