More quotes by John F. Kennedy
Hold fast to the best of the past and move fast to the best of the future.
John F. Kennedy
In addition, the United States Delegation will suggest a series of steps to improve the United Nations machinery for the peaceful settlement of disputes... - for extending the rule of international law. For peace is not solely a matter of military or technical problems - it is primarily a problem of politics and people.
John F. Kennedy
I look forward to an America which will not be afraid of grace and beauty.
John F. Kennedy
It is insane that two men, sitting on opposite sides of the world, should be able to decide to bring an end to civilization.
John F. Kennedy
I see no magic in tax dollars which are sent to Washington and then returned. I abhor the waste and incompetence of large-scale federal bureaucracies in this administration as well as in others. I do not favor state compulsion when voluntary individual effort can do the job and do it well.
John F. Kennedy
Most cities are nouns. New York's a verb.
John F. Kennedy
A wall is a hell of a lot better than a war.
John F. Kennedy
Our economy today depends upon women in the labor force. One out of three workers is a woman. Today, there are almost 25 million women employed, and their number is rising faster than the number of men in the labor force.
John F. Kennedy
I see little more important to the future of our country and our civilization than the full recognition of the place of the artist.
John F. Kennedy
Sincerity is always subject to proof.
John F. Kennedy
when my office would require me to either violate my conscience or violate the national interest, then I would resign the office and I hope any conscientious public servant would do the same.
John F. Kennedy
No man who enters upon the office to which I have succeeded can fail to recognize how every president of the United States has placed special reliance upon his faith in God.
John F. Kennedy
Time and the world do not stand still. Change is the law of life.
John F. Kennedy
We stand for freedom. That is our conviction for ourselves that is our only commitment to others.
John F. Kennedy
It was involuntary. They sank my boat.
John F. Kennedy
We had a dog who was named Pushinka, who was given to my father by a Soviet official. And we trained that dog to slide down the slide we had in the back of the White House. Sliding the dog down that slide is probably my first memory.
John F. Kennedy
There is no sense in agreeing or desiring that the United States take an affirmative position in outer space, unless we are prepared to do the work and bear the burdens to make it successful.
John F. Kennedy
The pay is good and I can walk to work.
John F. Kennedy
I think this is the most extraordinary collection of talent, of human knowledge, that has ever been gathered at the White House - with the possible exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone.
John F. Kennedy
I can't see that it's wrong to give him a little legal experience before he goes out to practice law.
