Quote of the day by Richard Nixon: 'Always remember, others may hate you, but those who hate you don't win unless you hate them, and then you destroy yourself" and a lesson on how to deal with haters

On August 8, 1974, Richard Nixon, the 37th US president, announced his resignation, triggered by several scandals. The next day, Nixon delivered his farewell speech to his staff. It was a long speech in which he addressed the controversies that mired his presidency (1969 to 1974). But the most memorable words spoken by the president that day were not political but life advice. "Always give your best, never get discouraged, never be petty; always remember, others may hate you, but those who hate you don't win unless you hate them, and then you destroy yourself."
