Lyndon B. JohnsonI believe the destiny of your generation - and your nation - is a rendezvous with excellence.
Lyndon B. JohnsonIt may be, it just may be, that life as we know it with its humanity is more unique than many have thought.
Lyndon B. JohnsonYou do not take a person who, for years, has been hobbled by chains and liberate him, bring him up to the starting line of a race and then say, "you are free to compete with all the others," and still justly believe that you have been completely fair. We seek not just legal equity but human ability, not just equality as a right and a theory but equality as a fact and equality as a result.
Lyndon B. JohnsonIf anybody has any idea of hoarding our silver coins, let me say this. Treasury has a lot of silver on hand, and it can be, and it will be used to keep the price of silver in line with its value in our present silver coin. There will be no profit in holding them out of circulation for the value of their silver content.
