John F. Kennedy
I have seen in many places housing which has been developed under government influences, but I have never seen any projects in which governments have played their part which have fountains and statues and grass and trees, which are as important to the concept of the home as the roof itself.
John F. Kennedy
We can have faith in the future only if we have faith in ourselves.
John F. Kennedy
