More quotes by Richard M. Nixon
I don't think a woman should be in any government job whatever. I mean, I really don't. The reason why I do is mainly because they are erratic and emotional.
Richard M. Nixon
You must never give up. You must remember that you have to take risks in order to achieve anything and sometimes you will suffer defeat. But the mark of any individual is to recover from defeat and disappointment and go on and give it his best shot.
Richard M. Nixon
When I retire I'm going to spend my evenings by the fireplace going through those boxes. There are things in there that ought to be burned.
Richard M. Nixon
President Johnson and I have a lot in common. We were both born in small towns and we're both fortunate in the fact that we think we married above ourselves.
Richard M. Nixon
We don't owe the blacks a damn thing, anyway.
Richard M. Nixon
They say it's the responsibility of the media to look at government - especially the President - with a microscope. I don't argue with that, but when they use a proctoscope, it's going too far.
Richard M. Nixon
This is a great day for France!
Richard M. Nixon
Your mind must always go, even while you're shaking hands and going through all the maneuvers. I developed the ability long ago to do one thing while thinking about another.
Richard M. Nixon
Publicly, we say one thing....Actually, we do another.
Richard M. Nixon
Those who hate us only win if we hate them back
Richard M. Nixon
As this long and difficult war ends, I would like to address a few special words to the American people: Your steadfastness in supporting our insistence on peace with honor has made peace with honor possible.
Richard M. Nixon
You can't depend on the man who made the mess to clean it up.
Richard M. Nixon
If I were to make public these tapes, containing blunt and candid remarks on many different subjects, the confidentiality of the office of the president would always be suspect.
Richard M. Nixon
You have to face the fact that the whole problem is really the blacks. The key is to devise a system that recognizes this all while not appearing to.
Richard M. Nixon
Never let your head hang down. Never give up and sit down and grieve. Find another way. And don't pray when it rains if you don't pray when the sun shines.
Richard M. Nixon
I've never left a game before it ended. You never know when there could be a big turnaround in the game.
Richard M. Nixon
There is no such thing as a nonpolitical speech by a politician.
Richard M. Nixon
The ability to be cool, confident, and decisive in crisis is not an inherited characteristic but is the direct result of how well the individual has prepared himself for the battle.
Richard M. Nixon
Defeat doesn't finish a man, quit does.
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
