Quote by Calvin Coolidge (1872-1933)

• Patriotism is easy to understand in America. It means looking out for yourself by looking out for your country.

• The government of the United States is a device for maintaining in perpetuity the rights of the people, with the ultimate extinction of all privileged classes.

• Christmas is not a time nor a season, but a state of mind. To cherish peace and goodwill, to be plenteous in mercy, is to have the real spirit of Christmas.

• The right thing to do never requires any subterfuge, it is always simple and direct.

• Collecting more taxes than is absolutely necessary is legalized robbery.

• The business of America is business.
