Richard M. Nixon
We don't owe the blacks a damn thing, anyway.
Richard M. Nixon
We must always remember that America is a great nation today not because of what government did for people but because of what people did for themselves and for one another.

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
I have impeached myself by resigning.
Richard M. Nixon
To a crisis of the spirit, we need an answer of the spirit. To find that answer, we need only look within ourselves. When we listen to the better angels of our nature, we find that they celebrate the simple things, the basic things--such as goodness, decency, love, kindness. Greatness comes in simple trappings.
Richard M. Nixon

Richard M. Nixon
This is a great day for France!
