More quotes by Lyndon B. Johnson
Let no one ever think for a moment that national debate means national division.
Lyndon B. Johnson
The poor suffer twice at the rioter's hands. First, his destructive fury scars their neighborhood second, the atmosphere of accommodation and consent is changed to one of hostility and resentment.
Lyndon B. Johnson
When I was a boy we didn't wake up with Vietnam and have Cyprus for lunch and the Congo for dinner.
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
Control of space means control of the world.
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.

Second, this law has become a special symbol of our Nation's most important purpose: to fulfill the individual - his freedom, his happiness, his promise.
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
If you're not listening, you're not learning.
Lyndon B. Johnson
I hear the headlines on the radio, see them on TV and read them in the paper. When I hear from the men out there, I sometimes don't believe they are talking about the same situation.
Lyndon B. Johnson
You might say that Lyndon Johnson is a cross between a Baptist preacher and a cowboy.
Lyndon B. Johnson
All of us realize that war requires action. What is sometimes harder for us to realize is that peace and neutrality also require action.
Lyndon B. Johnson
When I was young, poverty was so common that we didn't know it had a name.
Lyndon B. Johnson
The job, of course, will never be finished. For a nation, as for an individual, education is a perpetually unfinished journey, a continuing process of discovery.
Lyndon B. Johnson
If you're I politics and you can't tell when you walk into a room who's for you and who's against you, then you're in the wrong line of work.
Lyndon B. Johnson
If the purpose of lamentation be to excite pity, it is surely superfluous for age and weakness to tell their plaintive stories for pity presupposes sympathy, and a little attention will show them, that those who do not feel pain seldom think that it is felt.
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
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 miss an opportunity to say a word of congratulation upon anyone's achievement.
Lyndon B. Johnson
He that in the latter part of his life too strictly inquires what he has done, can very seldom receive from his own heart such an account as will give him satisfaction.
Lyndon B. Johnson
