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
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
If in order to avoid further Communist expansion in Asia and particularly in Indo-China, if in order to avoid it we must take the risk by putting American boys in, I believe that the executive branch of the government has to take the politically unpopular position of facing up to it and doing it, and I personally would support such a decision.
Richard M. Nixon
What a strange creature man is that he fouls his own nest.
Richard M. Nixon
The presidency has many problems, but boredom is the least of them.
Richard M. Nixon
I don't know a lot about politics, but I know a lot about baseball.
Richard M. Nixon
You cannot win a battle in any arena merely by defending yourself.
Richard M. Nixon
Nothing is more priceless and more worthy of preservation than the rich array of animal life with which our country has been blessed. It is a many-faceted treasure, of value to scholars, scientists, and nature lovers alike, and it forms a vital part of the heritage we all share as Americans.
Richard M. Nixon
