Being president is like being a jackass in a hailstorm. There's nothing to do but to stand there and take it.

The trouble with Nixon is that he's a serious politics junkie. He's totally hooked and like any other junkie, he's a bummer to have around, especially as President.

You won't have Nixon to kick around anymore, because, gentlemen, this is my last press conference.

Nixon represents that dark, venal and incurably violent side of the American character almost every other country in the world has learned to fear and despise.

Richard Nixon is a no good, lying bastard. He can lie out of both sides of his mouth at the same time, and if he ever caught himself telling the truth, he'd lie just to keep his hand in.

Nixon is one of the few in the history of this country to run for high office talking out of both sides of his mouth at the same time and lying out of both sides.

Nixon has enough to overcome in terms of his legacy and his political history. Now he has to overcome the in-fighting between his daughters. It's so sad. There's another obstacle for him to clear.

Do you realize the responsibility I carry? I'm the only person standing between Richard Nixon and the White House.

While he was president, it was popular to be a Nixon hater.
