Richard Nixon: “My friends, the President was right; Senator Kennedy was wrong, in 1955, and the proof of it is we've kept the peace…”

I firmly believe that our current fiscal situation demands national unanimity on the issues of a larger concern.

I have done my very best in all the days since to be true to that pledge.

In keeping Federal spending under control, we do not intend, of course, to single out only farm or environmental programs.

Mistakes, yes. But for personal gain, never.
