Parties do not maintain themselves. They are maintained by effort. The government is not self-existent. It is maintained by the effort of those who believe in it. The people of America believe in American institutions, the American form of government and the American method of transacting business.
Calvin CoolidgeWe cannot permit any inquisition either within or without the law or apply any religious test to the holding of office. The mind of America must be forever free.
Calvin CoolidgeBecause of what America is and what America has done, a firmer courage, a higher hope, inspires the heart of all humanity.
Calvin Coolidge
