Richard M. Nixon

You've got to learn to survive a defeat. That's when you develop character.

Politics would be a helluva good business if it weren't for the goddamned people.

The Cold War isn't thawing; it is burning with a deadly heat. Communism isn't sleeping; it is, as always, plotting, scheming, working, fighting.

I don't think they're going to pay me to play Mufasa.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

I'm quite content to spend my life helping young people find themselves. I've had my fill of politics.
