Famous quotes containing the words united and/or kingdom:
“Some of the offers that have come to me would never have come if I had not been President. That means these people are trying to hire not Calvin Coolidge, but a former President of the United States. I cant make that kind of use of the office.... I cant do anything that might take away from the Presidency any of its dignity, or any of the faith people have in it.”
—Calvin Coolidge (18721933)
“Boredom is the legitimate kingdom of the philanthropic.”
—Virginia Woolf (18821941)
