"I want to say this to the television audience. I made my mistakes, but in all of my years of public life, I have never profited, never profited from public service. I have earned every cent. And in all of my years of public life, I have never obstructed justice. And I think, too, that I can say that in my years of public life, that I welcome this kind of examination because people have got to know whether or not their President is a crook. Well, I'm not a crook. I've earned everything I've got." -- Richard Milhous Nixon (b. 1913-01-09, d. 1994-04-22; POTUS 1969-01-20 to 1974-08-09), 1973-11-17

"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. America needs a full-time President and a full-time Congress, particularly at this time with problems we face at home and abroad." -- Richard Milhous Nixon, resignation speech, 1974-08-08
