Richard M. Nixon
As you know, the separation of church and state is not subject to discussion or alteration. Under our Constitution no church or religion can be supported by the U.S. Government. We maintain freedom of religion so that an American can either worship in the church of his choice or choose to go to no church at all.
Richard M. Nixon
I was not lying. I said things that later on seemed to be untrue.
Richard M. Nixon
Tonight - to you, the great silent majority of my fellow Americans - I ask for your support.
Richard M. Nixon
There are times when an abortion is necessary. I know that. When you have a black and a white.

You cannot win a battle in any arena merely by defending yourself.
Richard M. Nixon
