"A great yachtsman in Marblehead, Mass., Mr. Crowninshield, when he -- on entering in his log book of his yacht a description of something really terrible, he'd refer to it as "a Roosevelt." "It was blowing an absolute Roosevelt that day and the fog was thicker than a Roosevelt," 'cause he used the word Roosevelt -- I mean, it seems ridiculous, but that was the extent to which these people took their hostility to the New Deal."
-Bronson Chanler, Hudson Valley neighbor of the Roosevelts.
