Ron Chernow Quote
Looked more like a grizzled, weather-beaten prospector than a former president. When he bet Julia that she wouldn’t dare to descend into the mine, located seventeen hundred feet below, it roused her fighting spirit and she proved him wrong. Grant surfaced from the deep mine, red-faced and perspiring, and joked that it was a good place to leave the newspapermen. Would you not leave the politicians, too? asked John H. Kinkead, the Nevada governor. Yes, Grant said drily, but there ain’t room for all that ought to be put here.130
