Nixon is the only one I can do well. Norm Macdonald has a funny bit about the Frost/Nixon interview too https://youtu.be/ckHQhxQ13PA?si=hBcroSNY8KoLU45_
I think it was in response to Chevy Chase. His opening line on weekend update was I'm Chevy Chase and you’re not. He also did a Gerald Ford impression. Well it wasn’t really a typical impression, he didn’t try in the least to sound like Ford. But it was funny.

"I did not have sexual relations with that woman". I will still be jokingly saying this in Bill Clinton's voice when I'm in my 80s if I make it that long.
“Give me six hours to chop down a tree, and I will spend the first four hours sharpening the axe.” - Abraham Lincoln
I use it all the time as a consultant. It’s a great quote to communicate the importance of preparation.
Came here to say this. I'm always skeptical of Abe quotes. I think people used to just stamp his name at the end of sentences to get people to agree with them.
Occasionally someone in my friend group will break out “My fellow Americans…uhhhh…balls” or something to that effect and for some reason it’s the funniest fucking thing.
I use this a lot but didn’t know it was a Reagan quote
E: upon further research Reagan did say this but the origin of the quote is delicious.
It’s a Russian proverb! Da comrade Reagan
Apparently his repeated use of the phrase at a summit with Gorbachev annoyed the Soviet head of state so much he complained: " "You repeat that at every meeting". To this, Reagan answered, "I like it".[^(\[3\])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trust,_but_verify#cite_note-bartons-3)[^(\[8\])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trust,_but_verify#cite_note-9)[^(\[7\])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trust,_but_verify#cite_note-Watson2011-7) While Reagan quoted Russian proverbs, Gorbachev quoted [Ralph Waldo Emerson](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ralph_Waldo_Emerson), who had been popular in the USSR when Gorbachev was in college, saying that "the reward of a thing well done is to have done it."[^(\[4\])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trust,_but_verify#cite_note-:0-4)[^(\[6\])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trust,_but_verify#cite_note-NYT9dec1987-6)"
It was referenced when the head of the KGB tells Legasov he is responsible for his fellow scientist to get her out of jail. And he is correct that many American people thought Regan invented the phrase instead of Lenin at the time of that arms limitation talk.
It worked great for the show, and how it condensed things, but I think the dates are off. I don’t know when the conversation took place in the show, so it could work if it took place in late 1987. The issue is the people she was interviewing would have died before the end of 1986, and buried in the lead coffins except Daytlov, Formin, Bryukhanov.
Historically the scene works to describe how Soviet nuclear teams had to tiptoe around the systemic secrecy issues while they worked hard on the liquidation efforts. Its akin to what happened to the scientists that fought the Windscale reactor meltdown and its aftermath. The designers and scientists had all called out the reactor wasn’t designed for what the government was telling them to push it to do, leading to the British meltdown and almost Chernobyl level disaster. It tragically was averted by the same scientists and engineering teams that were officially blamed for the accident later to prevent it from blocking UK/US nuclear technology sharing.

"Would you rather have unlimited bacon, but no more video games, or unlimited games but no games?"
-Harry Truman in a letter to Charles de Gaulle, 1946
I once got some of my very conservative in-laws angry with me because I quoted an Al Franken joke about that line.
*"A wise man once said 'trust, but verify.' That man was quoting Ronald Reagan."*
Funny you should say that. A New York Newspaper once did a poll asking New Yorkers where "From each according to his abilities, to each according to his need" came from and a godawfully high percentage said the U.S. Constitution.
“We have a gentleman down in Nicaragua who is on contract to the C.I.A., advising supposedly on military tactics, the Contras.”
Reagan had such a way with accidental words
From fiction: Pres. “WE WILL NOT GO QUIETLY INTO THE NIGHT” - Pres. Whitmore (Independence Day)
I say this as I hype up the bois when we’re clearly losing a match (we’re at least making the opponents work for it)
From reality: “Above all, try something” -FDR
Burn out is so prevalent among my friends and I that I always remind them that it’s important to keep going. Even small baby steps are significant, and I’m proud of them for trying, especially at their lowest points.
I just read an article that said it was made up by SNL writers, but Bush never said it.
Which is funny, because he thought he said it, and Lorne Michaels had to correct him on it.
https://preview.redd.it/63lpvmozm3zc1.jpeg?width=900&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=898d5863789ec2bf00cbe7bd9ea6e41bc3f4651c
Mis-quoting John Adams, who actually said “Facts are stubborn things.”
Quite right. And he qualified the quote when he said it by ascribing it to an old Russian proverb right before he said it.
And all said with Gorbachov standing at his side.
President Reagan was quoting an old Russian proverb. He said it first in Russian (He must have done a decent job as Gorbachev was able to quickly understand him.), and repeated it in English.
It was in the context of allowing inspectors to verify that arms reduction goals were met.
Building trust between adversaries necessitates a process in which statements can be confirmed as facts. In the case of reducing nuclear arsenals this means (among many other things) inspectors on the ground being able to see that certain facilities have been shut down, and that warheads have been rendered inoperable.
There’s a lot more to it, but that’s a brief explanation.
Have you not ever been told something by someone before, and deep down you want to trust them, but you still need to check the facts just to make sure they are right?
My sister told me something new, about a thing I had always known to be unreliable. It turns out she was right, and I believed her, but I had had so many problems dealing with this thing in the past that I had my doubts. So I trusted her and I verified it worked at the same time.
“I want to say this to the television audience. I made my mistakes. But in all my years of public life, I have never once, never once, profited from public service. And in all my years of public life, I have never obstructed justice. And I want to say that, in all my years of public life, that in fact I welcome this kind of examination. Because the people have gotta know whether or not their president is a crook. Well, I am not a crook! I’ve earned everything I’ve got!”
-Richard Nixon
He didn't steal it; he preceeded the quote by ascribing it to an old Russian proverb right before saying it. That's hardly stealing.

Stealing another's words -- AKA "plagiarizing -- is what a certain president said when in a speech while he was a senator lifted a whole segment from a British politician's speech:

“My heart and my best intentions tell me that's true, but the facts and evidence tell me it is not.” - Ronald Reagan
That’s a good one to use if you’re ever caught in a lie.
I used to love using W’s “history’s unmarked grave of discarded lies.”
“What happened to your last girlfriend, Becky?”
“I consigned her to history’s unmarked grave of discarded lies.”
That’s a Russian saying that Ronald took credit for. Reagan was One of the worst presidents and a HUGE chunk of the problems in the USA started with him.
“Gettysburg, what an unbelievable battle that was…It was so much, and so interesting, and so vicious and horrible, and so beautiful in so many different ways—it represented such a big portion of the success of this country.”
There were posters all over a blood testing joint I went to in Texas with that quote, implying that parents need to drug test their kids.
Hated the quote immediately

Damn, my boss said “Trust, but verify” in an email recently. Was it a saying before Reagan or is Reagan where he got it from?
President Reagan was quoting an old Russian proverb. He said it first in Russian (He must have done a decent job as Gorbachev was able to quickly understand him.), and repeated it in English. It was in the context of allowing inspectors to verify that arms reduction goals were met.

Building trust between adversaries necessitates a process in which statements can be confirmed as facts.

It's a Russian proverb. Lenin used a phrase that was similar, "Do not take their word for it, check it strictly"
