More quotes by John F. Kennedy
This country was founded by men and women who were dedicated or came to be dedicated to two propositions first, a strong religious conviction, and secondly a recognition that this conviction could flourish only under a system of freedom.
John F. Kennedy
We stand for freedom. That is our conviction for ourselves that is our only commitment to others.
John F. Kennedy
Whether I serve one or two terms in the Presidency, I will find myself at the end of that period at what might be called the awkward age-too old to begin a new career and too young to write my memoirs.
John F. Kennedy
Privilege is here, and with privilege goes responsibility.
John F. Kennedy
The guiding principle of this Nation has been, is now, and ever shall be IN GOD WE TRUST.
John F. Kennedy
We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win.
John F. Kennedy
A child miseducated is a child lost.
John F. Kennedy
Democracy is never a final achievement. It is a call to an untiring effort.
John F. Kennedy
Our way of life is under attack. Those who make themselves our enemy are advancing around the globe. The survival of our friends is in danger. And yet no war has been declared, no borders have been crossed by marching troops, no missiles have been fired.
John F. Kennedy
The world was not meant to be a prison in which man awaits his execution.
John F. Kennedy
Irrational barriers and ancient prejudices fall quickly when the question of survival itself is at stake.
John F. Kennedy
[War] can no longer be of concern to great powers alone.
John F. Kennedy
The war against hunger is truly mankind's war of liberation.
John F. Kennedy
There is something that happens when we leave the land and enter the ocean. It's unexpected, the environment feels strangely welcoming. The ocean almost feels like... home.
John F. Kennedy
I hear it said that West Berlin is militarily untenable - and so was Bastogne, and so, in fact, was Stalingrad. Any danger spot is tenable if men - brave men - will make it so.
John F. Kennedy
Struggle for freedom. Where people are denied the right of choice, recourse to such struggle is the only means of achieving their liberties.
John F. Kennedy
We can have faith in the future only if we have faith in ourselves.
John F. Kennedy
Events of October 1962 indicated, as they had all through history, that control of the sea means security. Control of the seas can mean peace. Control of the seas can mean victory. The United States must control the seas if it is to protect your security.
John F. Kennedy
Israel will endure and flourish. It is the child of hope and the home of the brave.
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
