More quotes by John F. Kennedy
The White House was designed by Hoban, a noted Irish-American architect, and I have no doubt that he believed by incorporating several features of the Dublin style he would make it more homelike for any President of Irish descent. It was a long wait, but I appreciate his efforts.
John F. Kennedy
Hold fast to the best of the past and move fast to the best of the future.
John F. Kennedy
The greater our knowledge increases the more our ignorance unfolds.
John F. Kennedy
We are confronted primarily with a moral issue... whether all Americans are to be afforded equal rights and equal opportunities, whether we are going to treat our fellow Americans as we want to be treated.
John F. Kennedy
Too often we... enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought.
John F. Kennedy
We hold the view that the people make the best judgment in the long run.
John F. Kennedy
The only reason to give a speech is to change the world.
John F. Kennedy
No government or social system is so evil that its people must be considered as lacking in virtue.
John F. Kennedy
But if the life will not be easy, it will be rich and satisfying. For every young American who participates in the Peace Corps-who works in a foreign land-will know that he or she is sharing in the great common task of bringing to man that decent way of life which is the foundation of freedom and a condition of peace.
John F. Kennedy
In a world of danger and trial, peace is our deepest aspiration.
John F. Kennedy
Race has no place in American life or law.
John F. Kennedy

John F. Kennedy
A life of complete leisure is the hardest work of all.
John F. Kennedy
Remember that our nation's first great leaders were also our first great scholars.
John F. Kennedy
History will not judge our endeavors--and a government cannot be selected--merely on the basis of color or creed or even party affiliation. Neither will competence and loyalty and stature, while essential to the utmost, suffice in times such as these.
John F. Kennedy
A child miseducated is a child lost.
John F. Kennedy
If anyone is crazy enough to want to kill a president of the United States, he can do it. All he must be prepared to do is give his life for the president's.
John F. Kennedy
There is, in addition to a courage with which men die a courage by which men must live.
John F. Kennedy
Khrushchev reminds me of the tiger hunter who has picked a place on the wall to hang the tiger's skin long before he has caught the tiger. This tiger has other ideas.
