Calvin Coolidge actually said...

"I have been exceedingly pleased with the cooperation I have had from the present Congress."

"It seems to me that we ought to get along without enlarging appropriations."

"My statement was correct, and I think a careful reading of what the Treasury was said to have given out would have revealed that there was no conflict between what I said and what the Treasury said."

"If Congress goes ahead and appropriates more money than there is in the Treasury, and makes it necessary to put in a bill increasing taxes, it won't encourage the business of the country."
