Родился в Калифорнии. Став юристом, в 1937 году вернулся в родной штат, чтобы заниматься юридической практикой. В 1942 году, получив предложение работать на федеральное правительство, вместе с женой переезжает в Вашингтон. В годы Второй мировой войны служил в военно-морских силах США. В 1946 году был избран в Палату представителей США от Калифорнии, а в 1950 году в сенат. В ходе дела Элджера Хисса Никсон приобретает антикоммунистическую репутацию и национальную известность. После выборов президента в 1952 году, на которых победил Дуайт Эйзенхауэр, Никсон занимает пост вице-президента. После восьми лет в этом кресле, в 1960 году участвует в выборах президента, однако с минимальной разницей уступает Джону Кеннеди. В 1962 году также безуспешно участвует в выборах губернатора Калифорнии. В 1968 году Никсон повторно участвует в выборах президента страны и на этот раз побеждает.

„In a civilized nation no man can excuse his crime against the person or property of another by claiming that he, too, has been a victim of injustice. To tolerate that is to invite anarchy“
— Richard Nixon
Context: There can be no right to revolt in this society; no right to demonstrate outside the law, and, in Lincoln's words, 'no grievance that is a fit object of redress by mob law'. In a civilized nation no man can excuse his crime against the person or property of another by claiming that he, too, has been a victim of injustice. To tolerate that is to invite anarchy.
„I should say this — that Pat doesn't have a mink coat. But she does have a respectable Republican cloth coat. And I always tell her that she'd look good in anything.“
— Richard Nixon
Context: p>That's what we have and that's what we owe. It isn't very much but Pat and I have the satisfaction that every dime that we've got is honestly ours. I should say this — that Pat doesn't have a mink coat. But she does have a respectable Republican cloth coat. And I always tell her that she'd look good in anything.One other thing I probably should tell you because if we don't they'll probably be saying this about me too, we did get something — a gift — after the election. A man down in Texas heard Pat on the radio mention the fact that our two youngsters would like to have a dog. And, believe it or not, the day before we left on this campaign trip we got a message from Union Station in Baltimore saying they had a package for us. We went down to get it. You know what it was. It was a little cocker spaniel dog in a crate that he'd sent all the way from Texas. Black and white spotted. And our little girl — Tricia, the 6-year old — named it Checkers. And you know, the kids, like all kids, love the dog and I just want to say this right now, that regardless of what they say about it, we're gonna keep it.</p
„The greatest honor history can bestow is the title of peacemaker.“
— Richard Nixon
Context: What kind of nation we will be, what kind of world we will live in, whether we shape the future in the image of our hopes, is ours to determine by our actions and our choices.
The greatest honor history can bestow is the title of peacemaker. This honor now beckons America — the chance to help lead the world at last out of the valley of turmoil, and onto that high ground of peace that man has dreamed of since the dawn of civilization.
If we succeed, generations to come will say of us now living that we mastered our moment, that we helped make the world safe for mankind.
This is our summons to greatness.
"The greatest honor history can bestow is the title of peacemaker" was later used as Nixon's epitaph.
