Richard Nixon: “We have proposed that social security benefits for widows be raised.”

Therefore, I shall resign the Presidency effective at noon tomorrow.

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

As a result of these efforts, I am confident that the world is a safer place today, not only for the people of America but for the people of all nations, and that all of our children have a better chance than before of living in peace…

May God's grace be with you in all the days ahead.
