The more I learn of Richard M Nixon the greater my appreciation for his genius and accomplishments. There will always be haters, I keep sight of his greatness as well as his flaws.

In retrospect, Watergate was more of a shock than a scandal, which people overreacted to at the time. Nixon's loss would prove to be America's loss in the years that followed.

He got screwed by his own party, their business model had no plan for "winning".

My Dad told me Richard Nixon was the first man he voted for president. Lifelong Southern Democrat but voted for him twice. I would've as well.

One of the most interesting books I ever read (In the Arena)! Nixon was a gifted writer and he had many insightful things to say.

A prime example of what happens when the president tried to cut the CIA deep state. They took him out and smeared sh*t on his name. Hope time will vindicate Nixon and his legacy

Those first four years in San Clemente were profoundly difficult and painful. I succeeded in recovering physically, spiritually, and mentally from the cataclysmic defeat I suffered in 1974. As I look back over those years in the wilderness, I would say that I was sustained by always bearing in mind three principles:
• Put the past behind you. Analyze and understand the reasons for your defeat, but do not become obsessed with what was lost. Think instead about what is left to do.
• Do not let your critics get to you. Remember that they win only if they divert you into fighting them rather than driving toward your goals.
• Devote your time to a goal larger than yourself. Avoid the temptation of living simply for pleasure or striving only to leave a larger estate.
