Nixon



Tagline: Shattered by a dangerous web of conspiracy, betrayal and intrigue!

The film tells the story of the political and personal life and the Watergate scandal of the 37th United States Richard Nixon played by the great Anthony Hopkins.

Quotes:

[to a portrait of John F. Kennedy] When they look at you, they see who they want to be. They look at me and they see what they are.

This is about me. Why can't you understand that, you of all people? It's not the war—it's Nixon! They want to destroy Nixon! And if I expose myself even the slightest bit they'll tear my insides out. Do you want that? Do you want to see that, Buddy? It's not pretty.

Always remember: others may hate you. But those who hate you don't win unless you hate them. And then you destroy yourself.

It took me a long time to fall in love with you, Dick. But it doesn't make you happy. You want them to love you. But they never will, Dick. No matter how many elections you win.

Why do you think Kissinger is taping your calls? For history. His word against yours — and right now he's got the records.


[to John Dean] John, sooner or later, sooner, I think, you're gonna learn a lesson that's been learned by everyone who's ever gotten close to Richard Nixon. That he's the darkness reaching out for the darkness. And eventually, it's either you or him. Your grave's already been dug, John.
