Richard M. Nixon
Screw State! State's always on the side of the blacks. The hell with them!
Richard M. Nixon
I have impeached myself by resigning.
Richard M. Nixon
If some of my judgments were wrong - and some were wrong - they were made in what I believed at the time to be the best interest of the nation.
Richard M. Nixon
The average American is just like the child in the family. You give him some responsibility and he is going to amount to something. He is going to do something. If, on the other hand, you make him completely dependent and pamper him and cater to him too much, you are going to make him soft, spoiled and eventually a very weak individual.
Richard M. Nixon
If you are ever going to lie, you go to jail for the lie rather than the crime. So believe me, don't ever lie.
Richard M. Nixon
Peace is the real and right memorial for those who have died in war.
Richard M. Nixon
I had never expected that the China initiative would come to fruition in the form of a Ping-Pong team.
Richard M. Nixon
Yet we can maintain a free society only if we recognize that in a free society no one can win all the time. No one can have his own way all the time, and no one is right all the time.
Richard M. Nixon
I seriously doubt if we will ever have another war. This is probably the very last one.
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
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
The Jews are irreligious, atheistic, immoral bunch of bastards.
Richard M. Nixon
The Jews are just a very aggressive and abrasive and obnoxious personality.
Richard M. Nixon
Let us remember that the main purpose of American aid is not to help other nations, but to help ourselves.
Richard M. Nixon
Idealism without realism is impotent. Realism without idealism is immoral.
Richard M. Nixon
I often thought that if there had been a good rap group around in those days, I might have chosen a career in music instead of politics.
Richard M. Nixon
I want to be sure...that nothing is done on these veterans. Is that understood?...Is the word out? That they are not to touch em, they are not to do a thing?...Get a hold of the district police they're not to touch them, they're to do nothing: Just let em raise Hell.
Richard M. Nixon
Mr. Stevenson has a degree alright-a PhD from the Acheson College of Cowardly Communist Containment.
Richard M. Nixon
I would rather be a one-term President and do what I believe is right than to be a two-term President at the cost of seeing America become a second-race power and to see this Nation accept the first defeat in its proud 190-year history.
Richard M. Nixon
