"In our home there was always prayer – aloud, proud and unapologetic." ― Lyndon B. Johnson Topic(s): Courage Tags: there More From Lyndon B. Johnson "If one morning I walked on top of the water across the Potomac River, the headline that afternoon would read: “President Can’t Swim.”" "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." "What we won when all of our people united must not be lost in suspicion and distrust and selfishness and politics. Accordingly, I shall not seek, and I will not accept, the nomination of my party for another term as president."

They will not be able to deny you because you have a pre-existing condition."― Rahm Emanuel "There is a measure needing courage to adopt and enforce it, which I believe to be of virtue sufficient to redeem the nation in this its darkest hour: one only; I know of no other to which we may rationally trust for relief from impending dangers without and within."― Robert Dale Owen "It takes a great deal of courage to follow another person’s lead."― Bill Hybels
