Oh Princess Alice...


Alice Roosevelt Longworth, the daughter of President Theodore Roosevelt, was never one to be prim and proper.   The President even said, "I can control the affairs of state, or I can control Alice.  I cannot possibly do both."

Quotes:

"If you haven't got anything nice to say about anybody, come sit next to me."

"He [Calvin Coolidge] looks as though he's been weaned on pickle"

"The truckman, the trashman, and the policeman on the block may call me Alice, but [Joseph McCarthy] may not."
