Gerald Ford actually said...

I want you to know that you take with you my very best wishes for every future happiness and success.

It is with sincere gratitude for your devoted service to our Nation that I accept your resignation as General Counsel of the Equal Employmen...

Like the bridge in Mostar, Mr. Prime Minister, the one between our nations and our peoples has withstood the test of time.

I accept your resignation as Chairman of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, effective today.
