More quotes by John F. Kennedy
All over the world, particularly in the newer nations, young men are coming to power--men who are not bound by the traditions of the past--men who are not blinded by the old fears and hates and rivalries-- young men who can cast off the old slogans and delusions and suspicions.
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

John F. Kennedy
The basis of effective government is public confidence.
John F. Kennedy
If at times our actions seem to make life difficult for others, it is only because history has made life difficult for us all.
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
Now we have a problem in making our power credible, and Vietnam is the place.
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
Harvard gave me an education, but Junior Chamber gave me an education for life.
John F. Kennedy
Each success brings with it the potential of failure and each failure brings with it the potential of success.
John F. Kennedy
The function and responsibility of the President is to set before the American people the unfinished business, the things we must do if we are going to succeed as a nation.
John F. Kennedy
Our progress as a nation can be no swifter than our progress in education. Our requirements for world leadership, our hopes for economic growth, and the demands of citizenship itself in an era such as this all require the maximum development of every young American's capacity. The human mind is our fundamental resource.
John F. Kennedy
American history is not something dead and over. It is always alive,always growing, always unfinished.
