More quotes by John F. Kennedy
A revolution is coming – a revolution which will be peaceful if we are wise enough compassionate if we care enough successful if we are fortunate enough – but a revolution which is coming whether we will it or not. We can affect its character we cannot alter its inevitability.
John F. Kennedy
We will neglect our cities to our peril, for in neglecting them we neglect the nation.
John F. Kennedy
Success has many fathers.
John F. Kennedy
There is a terrific disadvantage in not having the abrasive quality of the press applied to you daily. Even though we never like it, and even though we wish they didn't write it, and even though we disapprove, there isn't any doubt that we could not do the job at all in a free society without a very, very active press.
John F. Kennedy
One person can make a difference, and everyone should try.
John F. Kennedy
Let us make it clear that we will never turn our backs on our steadfast friends in Israel, whose adherence to the democratic way must be admired by all friends of freedom.
John F. Kennedy
Modern cynics and skeptics... see no harm in paying those to whom they entrust the minds of their children a smaller wage than is paid to those to whom they entrust the care of their plumbing.
John F. Kennedy
Harvard gave me an education, but Junior Chamber gave me an education for life.
John F. Kennedy
The White House was designed by Hoban, a noted Irish-American architect, and I have no doubt that he believed by incorporating several features of the Dublin style he would make it more homelike for any President of Irish descent. It was a long wait, but I appreciate his efforts.
John F. Kennedy
We must use time as a tool, not as a couch.
John F. Kennedy
We dare not forget that we are the heirs of that first revolution.
John F. Kennedy
Be aware of danger-but recognize the opportunity
John F. Kennedy
And a revolution of automation finds machines replacing men in the mines and mills of America, without replacing their incomes or their training or their needs to pay the family doctor, grocer and landlord.
John F. Kennedy
Ask not what your community can do for you ask what your community can not do for anyone else.
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
We are not afraid to entrust the American people with unpleasant facts, foreign ideas, alien philosophies, and competitive values.
John F. Kennedy
The complacent, the self-indulgent, the soft societies are about to be swept away with the debris of history. Only the strong, only the industrious, only the determined, only the courageous, only the visionary who determine the real nature of our struggle can possibly survive.
John F. Kennedy
To those whom much is given, much is expected.
John F. Kennedy
Lower rates of taxation will stimulate economic activity and so raise the levels of personal and corporate income as to yield within a few years an increased - not a reduced - flow of revenues to the federal government.
John F. Kennedy
Where nature makes natural allies of us all, we can demonstrate that beneficial relations are possible even with those with whom we most deeply disagree-and this must someday be the basis of world peace and world law.
John F. Kennedy
