Richard M. Nixon

Richard M. Nixon
I'll speak for the man, or against him, whichever will do him the most good.

Richard M. Nixon
I have earned every cent. And in all of my years of public life I have never obstructed justice.
Richard M. Nixon

Richard M. Nixon

Richard M. Nixon
Life isn't meant to be easy. It's hard to take being on the top - or on the bottom. I guess I'm something of a fatalist. You have to have a sense of history, I think, to survive some of these things... Life is one crisis after another.
Richard M. Nixon
