More quotes by Lyndon B. Johnson
We must open the doors of opportunity.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Whoever won't fight when the President calls him, deserves to be kicked back in his hole and kept there.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Education will not cure all the problems of society, but without it no cure for any problem is possible.
Lyndon B. Johnson
We still seek no wider war.
Lyndon B. Johnson
The land flourished because it was fed from so many sources--because it was nourished by so many cultures and traditions and peoples.
Lyndon B. Johnson

Lyndon B. Johnson
I'm gonna hunker down like a jack rabbit in a dust storm
Lyndon B. Johnson
War is always the same. It is young men dying in the fullness of their promise. It is trying to kill a man that you do not even know well enough to hate. Therefore, to know war is to know that there is still madness in the world.
Lyndon B. Johnson
We come to reason, not to dominate. We do not seek to have our way, but to find a common way.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Boys, it is just like the Alamo. Somebody should have by God helped those Texans. I'm going to Vietnam.
Lyndon B. Johnson
The family is the corner stone of our society. More than any other force it shapes the attitude, the hopes, the ambitions, and the values of the child. And when the family collapses it is the children that are usually damaged. When it happens on a massive scale the community itself is crippled.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Until justice is blind to color, until education is unaware of race, until opportunity is unconcerned with the color of men's skins, emancipation will be a proclamation but not a fact.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Our purpose in Vietnam is to prevent the success of aggression. It is not conquest, it is not empire, it is not foreign bases, it is not domination. It is, simply put, just to prevent the forceful conquest of South Vietnam by North Vietnam.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Emancipation was a proclamation, but not a fact.
Lyndon B. Johnson
When I was young, poverty was so common that we didn't know it had a name.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Every man should know that his conversations, his correspondence, and his personal life are private.
Lyndon B. Johnson
The Russians feared Ike. They didn't fear me.
Lyndon B. Johnson
It will help at every state along the road to learning. For the pre-school years we will help needy children become aware of the excitement of learning.
Lyndon B. Johnson
I may not worry as much as Prime Minister Eshkol does about Israel, but I worry as deeply.
Lyndon B. Johnson
We will not have served the water needs of Americans if we meet only the requirements of today's population. A prudent nation must look ahead and plan for tomorrow.
Lyndon B. Johnson
