More quotes by Richard M. Nixon
My own view is that taping of conversations for historical purposes was a bad decision on the part of all the presidents. I don't think Kennedy should have done it. I don't think Johnson should have done it, and I don't think we should have done it.
Richard M. Nixon
Certainly in the next 50 years we shall see a woman president, perhaps sooner than you think. A woman can and should be able to do any political job that a man can do.
Richard M. Nixon
I played by the rules of politics as I found them.
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
The Italians . . . you can't find one who is honest.
Richard M. Nixon
Bring us together again.
Richard M. Nixon

Richard M. Nixon
The 1970s must be the years when America pays its debt to the past by reclaiming the purity of its air, its waters, and our living environment. It is literally now or never.
Richard M. Nixon
The great question of the seventies is, shall we surrender to our surroundings, or shall we make our peace with nature and begin to make reparations for the damage we have done to our air, to our land, and to our water?
Richard M. Nixon
As we work to expand our supplies of energy, we should also recognize that we must balance those efforts with our concern to preserve our environment. In the past, as we have sought new energy sources, we have too often damaged or despoiled our land.
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
I reject the cynical view that politics is a dirty business.
Richard M. Nixon
Remember, always give your best. Never get discouraged. Never be petty. Always remember, others may hate you. But those who hate you don't win unless you hate them. And then you destroy yourself.
Richard M. Nixon
The Jewish cabal is out to get me.
Richard M. Nixon
Honesty may not be the best policy, but it is worth trying once in a while.
Richard M. Nixon
If you think the United States has stood still, who built the largest shopping center in the world?
Richard M. Nixon
Let us build bridges, my friends, build bridges to human dignity across that gulf that separates black America from white America.
