Richard Nixon, on Why Nothing Is Ever Going to Change, in the USA

Nixon had just ordered the release of Lt. William Calley, recently convicted of murdering 22 civilians in Vietnam, from military detention:

“Any person knows deep down I’m right, he knows goddam well I’m right. . . . I know what it is – the doves are really, really . . . worried about Calley. They’re worried b/c they realize that what it is is an animal instinct in this country, coming up. And most of the people don’t give a shit whether he killed them or not.”
