“Coolidge noted, they preserved “teaching,” which after all amounted to “leading,” and had given it the “same safeguards and guaranties as freedom and equality.” The state’s constitution had insisted, he pointed out, that “wisdom and knowledge, as well as virtue, diffused generally among the body of the people, are necessary for the preservation of their rights and liberties.”46 In those “days of reverence and of applied reverence,” the alumni of Harvard – John Adams and Bowdoin chief among them – “knew that freedom was the fruit of knowledge”
Charles C. Johnson, Why Coolidge Matters: Leadership Lessons from America's Most Underrated President

“We live under a system of individual freedom and self-government,” Coolidge reassured his readers, “where each individual is entitled to the rewards of his own foresight and industry and is charged with his own support.”
Charles C. Johnson, Why Coolidge Matters: Leadership Lessons from America's Most Underrated President

“We build our character largely by meeting our obligations to others,” he noted. “We all live in the same world. We are bound to a common destiny through a common brotherhood. The path to glory does not lie in a sordid individualism, a perverted independence, or a narrow nationalism. It lies toward the Golden Rule.”
