Is only a beginning,
always...
2:56:04
...because the greatness comes,
not when things go always good for you...
2:56:07
...but the greatness comes...
2:56:09
...when you're really tested...
2:56:11
...when you take some knocks,
some disappointments...
2:56:15
...when sadness comes.
2:56:17
Because only if you've been
in the deepest valley...
2:56:21
...can you ever know
how magnificent it is...
2:56:26
...to be on the highest mountain.
2:56:32
So I say to you on this occasion...
2:56:35
...we leave, proud of the people
who have stood by us...
2:56:38
...and worked for us and served
this government and this country.
2:56:43
They want you to continue
to serve in government...
2:56:46
...if that is what you wish.
2:56:48
Remember,
always give your best.
2:56:51
Never get discouraged.
2:56:53
Never be petty.
2:56:55
Always remember,
others may hate you.
2:56:59
But those who hate you
don't win unless you hate them.
2:57:03
And then,
you destroy yourself.
2:57:08
And so we leave with high hopes
and good spirits...
2:57:11
...and with deep humility.
2:57:13
And I say to each
and every one of you...
2:57:15
...not only will we always
remember you...
2:57:18
...but always you will be...
2:57:20
...in our hearts.
2:57:23
And you'll be...
2:57:25
...in our prayers.
2:57:27
And only then will you find
what we Quakers call...
2:57:31
"peace at the center".
2:57:47
He gave of
himself with intelligence and energy...
2:57:51
...and devotion to duty.
2:57:53
Richard Nixon was buried
and honored by five presidents...
2:57:56
...on April 26, 1994...
2:57:59
...less than a year after his
beloved wife, Pat, had died.
