More quotes by Lyndon B. Johnson
There is no issue of States' rights or National rights. There is only the struggle for human rights.
Lyndon B. Johnson
It may be, it just may be, that life as we know it with its humanity is more unique than many have thought.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Never make a speech at a country dance or a football game.
Lyndon B. Johnson
In my state, on the basis of the separate but equal doctrine, we have made enormous strides over the years in the education of both races. Personally, I think it would have been sounder judgment to allow that progress to continue through the process of natural evolution. However, there is no point crying about spilt milk.
Lyndon B. Johnson
For the first time in our history it is possible to conquer poverty.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Emancipation was a proclamation, but not a fact.
Lyndon B. Johnson
In addition to our existing programs, I will recommend a new program for schools and students with a first-year authorization of $1,500 million.
Lyndon B. Johnson
The last thing I wanted to do was to be a wartime President.
Lyndon B. Johnson
A rioter with a Molotov cocktail in his hands is not fighting for civil rights any more than a Klansman with a sheet on his back and mask on his face. They are both more or less what the law declares them: lawbreakers, destroyers of constitutional rights and liberties and ultimately destroyers of a free America.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Whether we are New Dealer, Old Dealer, Liberty Leaguer or Red, whether we agree or not, we still have the right to think and speak how we feel.
Lyndon B. Johnson
We decided that our first job was to help the schools serving the children from the very lowest income groups. Those families constitute the number one burden, the number one burden in this Nation on the school systems.
Lyndon B. Johnson
I'll have those n**gers voting Democratic for the next 200 years.
Lyndon B. Johnson
There are no favorites in my office. I treat them all with the same general inconsideration.
Lyndon B. Johnson
We preach the virtues of democracy abroad. We must practice its duties here at home. Voting is the first duty of democracy.
Lyndon B. Johnson
He's a nice guy, but he played too much football with his helmet off.
Lyndon B. Johnson
It now seems to be quite a thing to pull down the mighty from their seats and roll them in the mire. This practice deserves pronounced condemnation. Hero worship is a tremendous force in uplifting and strengthening. Humanity, let us have our heroes. Let us continue to believe that some have been truly great.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Men who have worked together to reach the stars are not likely to descend together into the depths of war and desolation.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Doing what's right isn't the problem. It is knowing what's right.
Lyndon B. Johnson
In a thousand unseen ways we have drawn shape and strength from the land.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Evil acts of the past are never rectified by evil acts of the present.
Lyndon B. Johnson
