More quotes by 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
I am concerned about the whole man. I am concerned about what the people, using their government as an instrument and a tool, can do toward building the whole man, which will mean a better society and a better world.
Lyndon B. Johnson
In a thousand unseen ways we have drawn shape and strength from the land.
Lyndon B. Johnson
If we must disagree, let's disagree without being disagreeable.
Lyndon B. Johnson
The American West is just arriving at the threshold of its greatness and growth. Where the West of yesterday is glamorized in our fiction, the future of the American West now is both fabulous and factual.
Lyndon B. Johnson
For this is what America is all about. It is the uncrossed desert and the unclimbed ridge. It is the star that is not reached and the harvest that is sleeping in the unplowed ground.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Of those to whom much is given, much is asked.
Lyndon B. Johnson
While you're saving your face, you're losing your ass.
Lyndon B. Johnson
The men who have guided the destiny of the United States have found the strength for their tasks by going to their knees. This private unity of public men and their God is an enduring source of reassurance for the people of America.
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 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
I'll have those n**gers voting Democratic for the next 200 years.
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
The Organization of American States couldn't pour piss out of a boot if the instructions were written on the heel.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Never make a speech at a country dance or a football game.
Lyndon B. Johnson
The presidency has made every man who occupied it, no matter how small, bigger than he was and no matter how big, not big enough for its demands.
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
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
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
