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.

I liked Nixon fine, but Nixon was not a partier.

Nixon was always willing to be bipartisan, so there are a lot of surprises in the man.

Presidents Truman and Nixon left office under dark clouds of scandal and with abysmal levels of support, but with the passage of time, both have been reassessed far more positively.

In my mind, the re-election of Richard Nixon, compared with what was available on the other side, was so much more important that I put it in just that context.

Nixon was a crook, of course, but he was also a rabid football fan - and he knew the game, which still astounds me, but I have always had a soft spot for him because of it.

I once told Nixon that the Presidency is like being a jackass caught in a hail storm. You've got to just stand there and take it.

Nixon probably was a nice guy.

It was accountability that Nixon feared.

I never believed that Nixon could fully resurrect himself. And the proof of that was in the obits.
