More quotes by Richard M. Nixon
What kind of nation we will be, what kind of world we will live in, whether we shape the future in the image of our hopes, is ours to determine by our actions and our choices.
Richard M. Nixon
The time has come for us to draw the line. The time has come for the responsible leaders of both political parties to take a stand against overgrown Government and for the American taxpayer.
Richard M. Nixon
I wish I could give you a lot of advice, based on my experience of winning political debates. But I don't have that experience. My only experience is at losing them.
Richard M. Nixon
I took a look around the office. ... I walked out and closed the door behind me. I knew that I would not be back there again. (On leaving the Executive Office Building)

The recent upsurge of public concern over environmental questions reflects a belated recognition that man has been too cavalier in his relations with nature. Unless we arrest the depredations that have been inflicted so carelessly on our natural systems-which exist in an intricate set of balances-we face the prospect of ecological disaster.
Richard M. Nixon
Publicly, we say one thing....Actually, we do another.
Richard M. Nixon
We still think of air as free. But clean air is not free, and neither is clean water. The price tag on pollution control is high. Through our years of past carelessness we incurred a debt to nature, and now that debt is being called.
Richard M. Nixon
Because of the realities of human nature, perfect peace is achieved in two places only: in the grave and at the typewriter.
Richard M. Nixon

We don't owe the blacks a damn thing, anyway.
Richard M. Nixon
Tonight - to you, the great silent majority of my fellow Americans - I ask for your support.
Richard M. Nixon
Politics would be a helluva good business if it weren't for the goddamned people.
Richard M. Nixon
The Italians . . . you can't find one who is honest.
Richard M. Nixon
Look at the Justice Department, it's full of Jews...The lawyers in government are damn Jews.
Richard M. Nixon
Under the doctrine of separation of powers, the manner in which the president personally exercises his assigned executive powers is not subject to questioning by another branch of government.
Richard M. Nixon
I want to be sure...that nothing is done on these veterans. Is that understood?...Is the word out? That they are not to touch em, they are not to do a thing?...Get a hold of the district police they're not to touch them, they're to do nothing: Just let em raise Hell.
Richard M. Nixon
I don't know anything that builds the will to win better than competitive sports.
Richard M. Nixon
Sure there are dishonest men in local government. But there are dishonest men in national government too.
Richard M. Nixon
The only place you and I disagree is with regard to the bombing. You're so goddamned concerned about the civilians, and I (in contrast) don't give a damn. I don't care.. . . I'd rather use the nuclear bomb. . . Does that bother you? I just want you to think big.
Richard M. Nixon
