Richard Nixon: “My knee is coming along fine.”

And as I leave, let me say, that is an example I think all of us should remember.

I have never been a quitter. To leave office before my term is completed is abhorrent to every instinct in my body. But as president, I must put the interests of America first. Therefore, I shall resign the presidency effective at noon…

We will see you again.

Always remember, others may hate you, but those who hate you don't win unless you hate them, and then you destroy yourself.
