More quotes by Jackie Kennedy

Being a journalist seemed the ideal way of both having a job and experiencing the world, especially for anyone with a sense of adventure.
Jackie Kennedy
I think the major role of the First Lady is to take care of the President so that he can best serve the people. And not to fail her family, her husband, and children.
Jackie Kennedy
Americans care about their past, but for short term gain they ignore it and tear down everything that matters.
