Light at the end of the tunnel? We don't even have a tunnel we don't even know where the tunnel is.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Every man has a right to a Saturday night bath.
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
I taught school in the early days of my manhood and I think I know something about mothers. There is a thread of aspiration that runs strong in them. It is the fiber that has formed the most unselfish creatures who inhabit this earth. They want three things only for their children to be fed, to be healthy, and to make the most of themselves.
Lyndon B. Johnson
For the individual, education is the path to achievement and fulfillment for the nation, it is a path to a society that is not only free but civilized and for the world, it is the path to peace - for it is education that places reason over force.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Every citizen will be able, in his productive years when he is earning, to insure himself against the ravages of illness in his old age.
Lyndon B. Johnson
We live in a world that has narrowed into a neighborhood before it has broadened into a brotherhood.
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
Today - wealthier, more powerful and more able than ever before in our history - our Nation can declare another essential freedom.
Lyndon B. Johnson
The exercise of power in this century has meant for all of us in the United States not arrogance, but agony.
Lyndon B. Johnson
The American Indian, once proud and free, is torn now between White and tribal values between the politics and language of the White man and his own historic culture. His problems, sharpened by years of defeat and exploitation, neglect and inadequate effort, will take many years to overcome.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Today our problem is not making miracles, but managing them.
Lyndon B. Johnson
'All men are created equal', 'government by consent of the governed', 'give me liberty or give me death'. Well, those are not just clever words, or those are not just empty theories.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Every child must be encouraged to get as much education as he has the ability to take. We want this not only for his sake - but for the nation's sake.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Let no one ever think for a moment that national debate means national division.
Lyndon B. Johnson
I believe we can continue the Great Society while we fight in Vietnam.
Lyndon B. Johnson
The Organization of American States couldn't pour piss out of a boot if the instructions were written on the heel.
Lyndon B. Johnson
This is not Johnson's war. This is America's war. If I drop dead tomorrow, this war will still be with you.
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
Lincoln was right about not fooling all the people all the time. But Republicans haven't given up trying.
