Image
The welfare of the weakest and the welfare of the most powerful are inseparably bound together. ... The general welfare cannot be provided for in any one act, but it is well to remember that the benefit of one is the benefit of all, and the neglect of one is the neglect of all.
Calvin Coolidge

Nature is inexorable. If men do not follow the truth they cannot live.
Calvin Coolidge
Image
Don't hesitate to be as revolutionary as science. Don't hesitate to be as reactionary as the multiplication table.
Calvin Coolidge
Image
The collection of taxes which are not absolutely required, which do not beyond reasonable doubt contribute to public welfare, is only a species of legalized larceny. Under this Republic the rewards of industry belong to those who earn them.

Calvin Coolidge
Image
I am for economy. After that I am for more economy. At this time and under present conditions that is my conception of serving all the people.
Calvin Coolidge
Image
Under our institutions each individual is born to sovereignty. Whatever he may adopt as a means of livelihood, his real business is serving his country. He cannot hold himself above his fellow men. The greatest place of command is really the place of obedience, and the greatest place of honor is really the place of service.
Calvin Coolidge

I want the people of America to be able to work less for the government, and more for themselves
Calvin Coolidge
Image
I shouldn't want you to be surprised, or to draw any particular inference from my making speeches, or not making speeches, out there. I don't recall any candidate for President that ever injured himself very much by not talking.
Calvin Coolidge
Image
Unless the people, through unified action, arise and take charge of their government, they will find that their government has taken charge of them. Independence and liberty will be gone, and the general public will find itself in a condition of servitude to an aggregation of organized and selfish interest.

Money will not purchase character or good government.
