Once, Calvin Coolidge had a formal dinner at the White House. And as usual he was being pretty quiet. A gentleman sitting near the president told his wife that he would bet her that he could make Coolidge say something.

"Mr. President sir, I told my wife that I could get you to say three words."

Coolidge looked the man in the eyes and told him "You lose."
