    All the Way quotes

    • Lyndon B. Johnson: I'm gonna need another set of those cufflinks.

    • Lady Bird Johnson: Would you like some more gravy?

      Sen. Richard Russell: Oh, Lady Bird, it was delicious, but I just couldn't possibly, no. Thank you.

      Lyndon B. Johnson: Hey, what about me? Aren't you going to offer me any more gravy?

      Lady Bird Johnson: Oh, honey, I'd like to, but I can't.

      Lyndon B. Johnson: Bird's got me on a diet. Got Zephyr there in kitchen weighing my plates for every meal. Ridiculous!

      Sen. Richard Russell: [Snarling] Your wife doesn't want you to get too big for your britches. An entirely understandable concern.

      Lady Bird Johnson: [as Johnson smiles smugly, Lady Bird leaves the room] I think I'll see how Zephyr coming with that cobbler.
