It's recession when your neighbor loses his job; it's a depression when you lose yours.

Carry the battle to them. Don't let them bring it to you. Put them on the defensive and don't ever apologize for anything.

Any man who has had the job I've had and didn't have a sense of humor wouldn't still be here.

If I want to be great I have to win the victory over myself... self-discipline.

The only thing new in the world is the history you do not know.

My father was not a failure. After all, he was the father of a president of the United States.

This administration is going to be cussed and discussed for years to come.

You know that being an American is more than a matter of where your parents came from. It is a belief that all men are created free and equal and that everyone deserves an even break.

We shall never be able to remove suspicion and fear as potential causes of war until communication is permitted to flow, free and open, across international boundaries.

A pessimist is one who makes difficulties of his opportunities and an optimist is one who makes opportunities of his difficulties.

I never did give anybody hell. I just told the truth and they thought it was hell.

Actions are the seed of fate deeds grow into destiny.

When you have an efficient government, you have a dictatorship.

It’s a recession when your neighbor loses his job; it’s a depression when you lose your own.

Intense feeling too often obscures the truth.

Nixon is one of the few in the history of this country to run for high office talking out of both sides of his mouth at the same time and lying out of both sides.

A president either is constantly on top of events or, if he hesitates, events will soon be on top of him. I never felt that I could let up for a moment.

A President cannot always be popular.

Richard Nixon is a no good, lying bastard. He can lie out of both sides of his mouth at the same time, and if he ever caught himself telling the truth, he'd lie just to keep his hand in.

The buck stops here!
