More quotes by John F. Kennedy
The new and terrible dangers which man has created can only be controlled by man.
John F. Kennedy
Philanthropy, charity, giving voluntarily and freely... call it what you like, but it is truly a jewel of an American tradition.
John F. Kennedy
No American is ever made better off by pulling a fellow American down, and all of us are made better off whenever any one of us is made better off.
John F. Kennedy
If we could ever competitively, at a cheap rate, get fresh water from saltwater, ..(this) would be in the long-range interests of humanity which could really dwarf any other scientific accomplishments.
John F. Kennedy
Above all, we are coming to understand that the arts incarnate the creativity of a free people. When the creative impulse cannot flourish, when it cannot freely select its methods and objects, when it is deprived of spontaneity, then society severs the root of art.
John F. Kennedy
Ask not that the journey be easy ask instead that it be worth it.
John F. Kennedy
Courage--judgment--integrity--dedication--these are the historic qualities of the Bay Colony and the Bay State....And these are the qualities which, with God's help, this son of Massachusetts hopes will characterize our government's conduct in the four stormy years that lie ahead.
John F. Kennedy
Effort and courage are not enough without purpose and direction.
John F. Kennedy
Peace does not rest in charters and covenants alone. It lies in the hearts and minds of the people.
John F. Kennedy
Ask not what your community can do for you ask what your community can not do for anyone else.
John F. Kennedy
And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man.
John F. Kennedy
Democracy may not be perfect, but at least I don't have to build a wall to keep my people in.
John F. Kennedy
Our nation is founded on the principal that observance of the law is the eternal safeguard of liberty and defiance of the law is the surest road to tyranny.
John F. Kennedy
The Republican Party can lead any person to believe that their promises will be fulfilled in the future. They follow the Hitler line – no matter how big the lie repeat it often enough and the masses will regard it as truth.
John F. Kennedy
Our children and grandchildren are not merely statistics towards which we can be indifferent.
John F. Kennedy
Budget deficits are not caused by wild-eyed spenders, but by slow economic growth and periodic recessions. And any new recession would break all deficit records. In short, it is a paradoxical truth that tax rates are too high today and tax revenues are too low, and the soundest way to raise the revenues in the long run is to cut the rates now.
John F. Kennedy
I believe in an America where religious intolerance will someday end... where every man has the same right to attend or not attend the church of his choice.
John F. Kennedy
The very word 'secrecy' is repugnant in a free and open society. ... There is little value in ensuring the survival of our nation if our traditions do not survive with it.
John F. Kennedy
What church I go to on Sunday, what dogma of the Catholic Church I believe in, is my business and whatever faith any other American has is his business.
John F. Kennedy
Sincerity is always subject to proof.
John F. Kennedy
