One of Lyndon B. Johnson's most famous quotes was not originally his! Which one?

Most famous for his scorched-earth tactics in the Civil War, General William Tecumseh Sherman brought that same military philosophy to the West, where he shaped a policy and strategy that would finally subjugate all the native peoples of the plains.

Sherman became general commander of the United States Army in 1869, and in this position directed a series of campaigns that finally crushed Indian resistance across the plains.

He perceived clearly the devastating effectiveness of striking at the economic basis of the Plains Indians' lives.

Sherman retired from the army in 1884 and famously refused to become a candidate for president, saying "If nominated I will not run; if elected I will not serve."

This quote is incorrectly attributed to Lyndon B. Johnson during his retirement speech.
