President Calvin Coolidge could be a prankster. He would sometimes page a Secret Service agent. As the agent was on his way into the Oval Office, Coolidge would hide under his desk. At a dinner at the White House, Dorothy Parker told Coolidge she had made a bet she could get him to say more than two words.  Coolidge responded, “You lose.” In 1925, someone asked him what it was like being President of the United States.  Coolidge responded, “Well, you’ve got to be mighty careful.” When he received his first paycheck as President from a delivery man from the Department of the Treasury, Coolidge said, “Come again!” It was well-known that when he returned from his honeymoon, he handed his wife a bag with 52 pairs of socks with holes in them.  When asked if he had married his wife to get his socks repaired, he replied, “No, but I find it mighty handy.”
