Both Presidents Reagan and Clinton .
The sign was on President Truman's desk: THE BUCK STOPS HERE. Meaning quit passing the excuse or job onto other people.
Oh, dude, Ronald Reagan had a sign on his Oval Office desk that said, "It can be done." I mean, like, I guess he needed a little pep talk every time he sat down to make big decisions or something. But hey, if it worked for him, who am I to judge?
No, the president is not required to sign a bill that reaches their desk. The president has the option to either sign the bill into law, veto it, or take no action. If the president vetoes the bill, Congress can attempt to override the veto with a two-thirds majority in both chambers. If the president takes no action for ten days while Congress is in session, the bill automatically becomes law.

A pocket veto will be possible for the president only if Congress adjourns before the president has ten days to sign or veto the bill. If Congress adjourns during this period, the bill does not become law and is effectively vetoed.
He can sign it, or he can veto it; he can also pocket-veto it (take no action, and if the congress is not in session, after ten days, the bill is dead, for all intents and purposes).
