Richard Nixon: “We have kept our commitments as we have taken out our troops.”

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…

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

I am firmly convinced that the record, in its entirety, does not justify the extreme step of impeachment and removal of a President.

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