When Calvin Coolidge was President of the United States, he saw dozens of people
each day. Most had complaints of one kind or another.
One day a visiting Governor told the President that he did not understand how he
was able to meet so many people in the space of a few hours.
“Why, you are finished with all your visitors by dinner time,” said the Governor,
“while I am often in my office till midnight.”
“Yes,” said Coolidge. “That’s because you talk.”
