Pardon Nixon

Famous quotes containing the words pardon and/or nixon:

    Let us pardon him his hope of a vain apocalypse, and of a second coming in great triumph upon the clouds of heaven. Perhaps these were the errors of others rather than his own; and if it be true that he himself shared the general illusion, what matters it, since his dream rendered him strong against death, and sustained him in a struggle to which he might otherwise have been unequal?
    Ernest Renan (1823–1892)

    People have got to know whether or not their president is a crook. Well, I’m not a crook.
    —Richard M. Nixon (1913–1992)
