Richard Nixon: “We want for ourselves and for our children peace without surrender to the forces of slavery throughout the world.”

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…

I further urge all students in our country to acquaint themselves fully with their own student government associations and to play a constructive role in contributing to their success.

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

We will see you again.
