"Restricted immigration is not an offensive but purely a defensive action. It is not adopted in criticism of others in the slightest degree, but solely for the purpose of protecting ourselves."

-- Calvin Coolidge

“American institutions rest solely on good citizenship. They were created by people who had a background of self-government. New arrivals should be limited to our capacity to absorb them into the ranks of good citizenship. ... Those who do not want to be partakers of the American spirit ought not to settle in America.”

--Calvin Coolidge
