More quotes by 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
When consumers purchase more goods, plants use more of their capacity, men are hired instead of laid off, investment increases, and profits are high. Corporate tax rates must also be cut to increase incentives and the availability of investment capital.
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
The problem of power is how to achieve its responsible use rather than its irresponsible and indulgent use of how to get men of power to live for the public rather than off the public.
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
Washington is a city of Southern efficiency and Northern charm.
John F. Kennedy
Those who came before us made certain that this country rode the first waves of the industrial revolution, the first waves of modern invention and the first wave of nuclear power. And this generation does not intend to founder in the backwash of the coming age of space. We mean to be part of it-we mean to lead it.
John F. Kennedy
Whatever one's religion in his private life may be, for the officeholder, nothing takes precedence over his oath to uphold the Constitution and all its parts - including the First Amendment and the strict separation of church and state.
John F. Kennedy
If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich.
John F. Kennedy
If men and women are in chains anywhere in the world, then freedom is endangered everywhere.
John F. Kennedy
Domestic policy can only defeat us foreign policy can kill us.
John F. Kennedy
I look forward to a great future for America - a future in which our country will match its military strength with our moral restraint, its wealth with our wisdom, its power with our purpose.
John F. Kennedy
We have the power to make this the best generation of mankind in the history of the world or to make it the last.
John F. Kennedy
The American, by nature, is optimistic. He is experimental, an inventor and a builder who builds best when called upon to build greatly.
John F. Kennedy
A boy spends his time finding a girl to sleep with. A real man spends his time looking for the one worth waking up to.
John F. Kennedy
To those whom much is given, much is expected.
John F. Kennedy
The greater our knowledge increases the more our ignorance unfolds.
John F. Kennedy
Political action is the highest responsibility of a citizen.
John F. Kennedy
But however close we sometimes seem to that dark and final abyss, let no man of peace and freedom despair. For he does not stand alone.
John F. Kennedy
Our most basic common link is that we all inhabit this small planet.
John F. Kennedy
