Calvin Coolidge Coloring Page
Happy Independence Day. Did you know that July 4th is not only America’s birthday, but it is also the birthday of our 30th US President? So, in honor of both occasions, I’m sharing this Calvin Coolidge coloring page today.
This free printable contains something Coolidge once said that is just as true today as when he first spoke it:
Calvin Coolidge
We do not need more material development, we need more spiritual development. We do not need more intellectual power, we need more moral power. We do not need more knowledge, we need more character. We do not need more government, we need more culture. We do not need more law, we need more religion. We do not need more of the things that are seen, we need more of the things that are unseen. It is on that side of life that it is desirable to put the emphasis at the present time. If that side be strengthened, the other side will take care of itself.
Calvin Coolidge had many more wise and pithy words to say. Here are a few more of my favorite quotes from this president.
- “There is no dignity quite so impressive, and no independence quite so important, as living within your means.”
- “You can’t know too much, but you can say too much.”
- “Don’t expect to build up the weak by pulling down the strong.”
- “We cannot do everything at once, but we can do something at once.”
- “Prosperity is only an instrument to be used, not a deity to be worshipped.”
- “I have found it advisable not to give too much heed to what people say when I am trying to accomplish something of consequence. Invariably they proclaim it can’t be done. I deem that the very best time to make the effort.”
