Lyndon B. Johnson: [walking right up to his face] We've been talking about this forever, and we never say a damn thing.
Senator Richard Russell: Well-a, What? What do you wanna say? That you're gonna turn your back on me? That you don't care about everything I've done for you? That you're willing to betray me?
Lyndon B. Johnson: That you're a racist.

Malcolm: Sir... the American people need to know that President Kennedy has died.
Lyndon B. Johnson: On April 14th, 1865, two men attempted to kill Secretary of State William Seward stabbing him in his home. At the same time, another assassin was on his way to take the life of Vice President Andrew Johnson. This was the same night that John Wilkes Booth shot Abraham Lincoln. We don't know the extent of this conspiracy or who's behind it. Malcolm, you're to announce President Kennedy's death, only after the rest of us are safely onboard that plane. Otherwise, you're gonna make these boys' jobs a whole hell of a lot harder.
