The supreme court requested that Richard Nixon hands over the tapes that he had. If they had them, they could then see what he's done and how corrupt he was so he decided to resign before being impeached. That's why he's not on the short list of presidents who were almost impeached, the other two being Clinton and Jackson, both of whom were acquitted of charges.
Looking at a question, it's more of an opinion than a right or wrong answer?
Nevertheless, personally I agree with the quote. Instead of a sole ruler who wants to do everything himself and makes it known to people below his status, a good leader would be somewhat "among us". He does his job, and lets us do ours (not disturbing us), or in most cases, leading us instead of controlling us. This would be more productive and meaningful, and peoples' morale and teamwork is boosted.
