This program that we are meeting about this morning is a Johnson program.

I regret that the most colorful sight in the Rose Garden this morning is my sunburn.

In this largest organization of its kind, the executive branch of the Government of the United States, the emphasis is no longer on the faceless mass, but the emphasis is on individual excellence.

This government of the people, by the people, and for the people.
