Known for

The thirty-fourth president of the United States. In a 1954 address he quoted an unnamed former college president: "I have two kinds of problems, the urgent and the important. The urgent are not important, and the important are never urgent." He did not claim the idea, and the urgent and important grid named for him was drawn by later writers.
