Princess Margaret: [after telling Lyndon Johnson she was "distinctly underwhelmed" by John F. Kennedy] I'm sorry. Did I say something wrong? I do know these days one's not allowed to think anything other than what a great statesman Kennedy was.
First Lady Claudia "Lady Bird" Johnson: Say nothing, Lyndon.
Princess Margaret: Of course he'll say nothing. He was his loyal deputy. Which I think I can understand better than most. The frustrations and resentments that can build up from a life as a number two. The support act. Even of someone you adore. You spent three years as Vice President. I've spent my whole life as Vice Queen.
