Hi, TodayIAm...

The answer is....(drum roll) Richard M. Nixon.  Now, for 5 extra points, who can name the occasion in which he said this?  

Oh, heck, I won't leave us all in suspense: Nixon told the nation this in his (maudlin) farewell speech.  

But here's the thing, TodayIAm, (and I'm really glad you posed the question and offering such a great example of learning today) You don't HAVE to read books to know this stuff.  You just need to be on the internet.  I didn't know the answer to your quiz question, so looked it up ("Presidential quote, I am not educated") and voila!  There it was.  20 seconds, tops.  

It's easier than it's ever been.  Are people any more knowledgeable than they were in the past?  Maybe.  Maybe not.  You doubt me?  Read these comment pages...

The bromide used to be, "It's not what you know, it's who you know."  2017 version: "It's not what you know, but how you Google."
