At a White House press conference various reporters were vainly firing questions at President Calvin Coolidge whose fame for being a man of very few words was transcendental with regards to his personality. Silent Cal didn't disappoint:"Have you anything to say about prohibition?"
"No."
"Have you anything to say about the World Court?"
"No."
"About the farm situation?"
"No."
"About the forthcoming senatorial campaign?"
"No."
The conference was breaking up as the disappointed reporters began to file out of the room.
"And," the President suddenly called out, "don't quote me."
