I must say, to be very honest about it, that I held in my mind during the life of the Commission, that there had been three shots and that a separate shot struck Governor Connally. ↗

My mission was always intended to be slightly outside the public eye, because that makes me appear more interesting than I really am. A lot of people don't realise that merely by staying away, you can create a myth. ↗

Once imbued with the idea of a mission, a great nation easily assumes that it has the means as well as the duty to do God's work. ↗

I would be surprised to see the White House scaling back on anything. That would be an admission they are operating from a position of weakness. ↗
