Herbert Hoover actually said...

"The objects to be gained by cooperation within an administration between the administration and Congress, between the administration and the leaders of our economic and social forces, are not the pawn..."

"I owe to them a larger obligation for the courtesy of these dinners for over 17 years."

"It is the right and duty of Congress to investigate and formulate legislation."

"It appears to expect me to perform two separate duties, which occasionally in some degree seem to conflict."
