Richard Nixon: “The legislation being transmitted today would control dumping in the Great Lakes.”

This country needs good farmers, good businessmen, good plumbers, good carpenters.

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

Always give your best, never get discouraged, never be petty.

This, more than anything, is what I hope will be my legacy to you, to our country, as I leave the Presidency.
