“Almighty Father, forgive me for saying the words I did in anger, shaming him for his poverty and blaming him for mine. And for putting the idea in his head. Forgive him. Forgive him. He didn’t know what he was doing.”

“Good government cannot be found on the bargain-counter. We have seen samples of bargain-counter government in the past when low tax rates were secured by increasing the bonded debt for current expenses or refusing to keep our institutions up to the standard in repairs, extensions, equipment, and accommodations. I refuse, and the Republican Party refuses, to endorse that method of sham and shoddy economy.”
—Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
