“Let me have men about me that are fat,
Sleek-headed men and such as sleep a-nights.

He thinks too much. Such men are dangerous.”

To find the mind’s construction in the face:
He was a gentleman on whom I built
An absolute trust.”

“The measure discriminates definitely against products which make up what has been universally considered a program of safe farming. The bill upholds as ideals of American farming the men who grow cotton, corn, rice, swine, tobacco, or wheat and nothing else. These are to be given special favors at the expense of the farmer who has toiled for years to build up a constructive farming enterprise to include a variety of crops and livestock.”
—Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
