Lyndon Johnson actually said...

"For in education, the time we waste today can mean a life wasted tomorrow."

"I want you to know that your efforts are not only welcomed by your President, but they are respected and they are applauded."

"So, we must go to the heart of the battle if we are to have a better life--for it is there that the decision lies."

"What was more important than anything else in the world was what Arthur Goldberg was then doing."
