Richard Nixon: “For the first time in 16 years, unemployment in peacetime is below 5 percent.”

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.

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

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