Lyndon B. JohnsonIn 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. JohnsonEvery 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 future of our nation's sake.

Lyndon B. JohnsonThere's something special for everyone to do. Remember, no experience is a bad experience unless you gain nothing from it.
