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
Since the time of the ancient Greeks, we have always felt that there was a close relationship between a strong, vital mind and physical fitness.
John F. Kennedy
The best way to progress is the path of freedom.
John F. Kennedy
We can have faith in the future only if we have faith in ourselves.
John F. Kennedy
Freedom is indivisible, and when one man is enslaved, all are not free.

The United States, as the world knows, will never start a war.
John F. Kennedy
