When you learn to make everybody happy, you will possess the golden secret of how to milk the contented voters. But do it in such a way that they won… - Gracie Allen

As a well-known great man would have said if he had thought of it, “Don’t go around offending people just because it can be done sitting down.”

All the other candidates are making speeches about how much they have done for this country, which is ridiculous. I haven’t done anything yet, and I think it’s just common sense to send me to Washington and make me do my share.

Now, I don’t pretend to know all the answers. I’m just a plain, ordinary, everyday genius who loves her fellow-man whenever possible. But let me tell you that women are getting very tired of running a poor second to the Forgotten Man, and with all the practice we’ve had around the house the time is ripe for a woman to sweep the country. I’ll make a prediction with my eyes open: that a woman can and will be elected if she is qualified and gets enough votes.
