Famous quotes containing the words jersey, vietnam and/or war:

    New Jersey gives us glue.
    Howard Dietz (1896–1983)

    I told them I’m not going to let Vietnam go the way of China. 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. I want ‘em to get off their butts and get out in those jungles and whip hell out of some Communists. And then I want ‘em to leave me alone, because I’ve got some bigger things to do right here at home.
    Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)

    Our lives laid down in war and peace may not
    Be found acceptable in Heaven’s sight.
    And that they may be is the only prayer
    Worth praying. May my sacrifice
    Be found acceptable in Heaven’s sight.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
