I told them to go back and tell those generals in Saigon that Lyndon Johnson intends to stand by our word, but by God, I want something for my money.

And then I want ‘em to leave me alone, because I’ve got some bigger things to do right here at home.

    The stars and heavenly deeps
    Work out a perfect will.
