What was Watergate? A gezegde

 What was Watergate? A little bugging! Richard M
  Richard M. Nixon

 It can go on and on, or someone must write 'The End' to it. I have concluded that only I can do that. And if I can, I must.(Ford’s pardon of Richard Nixon for Watergate)

 Watergate showed more strengths in our system than weaknesses... The whole country did take part in quite a genuine sense in passing judgment on Richard Nixon.
  Archibald Cox

 Had the Senate or House, or both, censured or somehow warned Richard Nixon, the tragedy of Watergate might have been prevented. Hopefully the Senate will not sit by while even more serious abuses unfold before it.

 It I talked about Watergate, I was described as struggling to free myself from the morass. If I did not talk about Watergate, I was accused of being out of touch with reality.
  Richard M. Nixon

 From Watergate we learned what generations before us have known; our Constitution works. And during Watergate years it was interpreted again so as to reaffirm that no one - absolutely no one - is above the law.

 The system is worse now than it was during Watergate. I think it's sad. It took a scandal like Watergate to get change before, and that is what it will take a second time.

 An attempt is already underway to revise history - to leave the impression that the former president had nothing to do with Watergate. But there is no doubt about his obstruction of justice after the Watergate break-in.

 This is the old crowd kind of re-launching the wars of Watergate, and saying let's make the conduct of the sources we used the issue, rather then their own. The record of Watergate crimes is staggering, voluminous and irrefutable

 For example, they show... that the president didn't know about the Watergate break-in, as he always asserted (and) that throughout the second half of 1972 he repeatedly urged his aides not to cover up Watergate, as he always asserted.
  John Taylor

 Not since Richard Nixon stiffed the Congress during Watergate has a White House so openly and arrogantly defied Congress' investigative authority. Nor has any activity by the Bush administration more strongly suggested they are hiding incriminating information about their relationship with the now-moribund Enron, or other heavy-hitting campaign contributors from the energy business.

 A majority of Americans living today, a surprisingly small majority because of the large youthful population, still remembers Watergate. And when we hear the word eavesdropping, those of us who lived during Watergate, we think of the nefarious activities of the Nixon administration.

 He was hanging his head, his coat wouldn't turn - it was almost like he was depressed, ... Richard decided he was craving attention, so he moved him to a paddock near their house. His wife and daughter started feeding and playing with him every day. The horse perked right up, and when Richard went to training him, he was better than ever. After his second five-eighths, Richard told me, 'This horse has another Breeders' Cup in him.'

 It was heavy to carry around. We editors have to carry manuscripts. I do a lot of homework on the subway, at home at night and on weekends. You look at a manuscript like that and you think it will need cutting. There was very little to cut. It was already very tight. Richard III is so intriguing. We all hate him. He's the sniveling, hunchback murderer. How terrific of Anne to turn that on its head and say this is the Richard I see. This is the Richard I imagine. The Commodore 64 is the computer that attracts demo programming. I like that aspect a lot.

 Richard is a very sexy man. He's got that sort of jungle essence that one can sense." (on Richard Burton)
  Elizabeth Taylor
