The press is the enemy.
When the President does it, that means that it’s not illegal.
People have got to know whether or not their president is a crook. Well, I’m not a crook. I earned everything I’ve got.
I can see clearly now… that I was wrong in not acting more decisively and more forthrightly in dealing with Watergate.
Let others wallow in Watergate.
You must pursue this investigation of Watergate even if it leads to the president. I’m innocent. You’ve got to believe I’m innocent. If you don’t, take my job.
When I retire I’m going to spend my evenings by the fireplace going through those boxes. There are things in there that ought to be burned.
