Calvin Coolidge actually said...

"Peace and prosperity are not finalities; they are only methods."

"In the case of events that everybody knows will occur it ought either to be provided by law or not provided for at all."

"In the domestic field there is tranquility and contentment, harmonious relations between management and wage earner, freedom from industrial strife, and the highest record of years of prosperity."

"But it really ought to be taken up and regulated by law, in order to prevent the President and the departments being subjected to pressure every time there is a holiday for additional leave of absence..."
