That Quotable Kennedy Clan


America has had a fascination with the Kennedy clan for some time now. We’ve watched them laugh, run for political office, die, cry, die, drive women to a watery death and then run away, overdose, buy smack in Harlem, get away with rape and crash an airplane and die for over four decades now. And through it all they’ve never shut up. And so now for your Kennedy reading pleasure we offer you some uplifting, witty and unfloundering thoughts from a family that was based on a bootlegger’s riches. Here are the Kennedy’s...

I’ll have a turkey and cheese sandwich on white bread with mayo. And I’ll also have a cup of chowder.­

...On Going to the Bathroom:

I have to go to the bathroom. I’ll be back in a few minutes­.
—John F. Kennedy. Explaining to Lyndon B. Johnson and his brother Robert in the Oval Office that he had to go to the bathroom, Washington, D.C., September 12, 1962.

Now it’s my turn.
—Robert F. Kennedy. When his brother John returned to the Oval Office after going to the bathroom, Washington, D.C., September 12, 1962.

I gotta take a leak. Have a fresh scotch waiting for me by the time I get back.
