John F. Kennedy
Someone always needs rescuing, yet there's only one person who ever seems to understand you. It's a lot like being Lassie.
John F. Kennedy

John F. Kennedy
In the dark days and darker nights when England stood alone-and most men save Englishmen despaired of England's life-he [Churchill] mobilized the English language and sent it into battle.
John F. Kennedy
Once you say you're going to settle for second, that's what happens to you in life.
John F. Kennedy
Our nation is founded on the principal that observance of the law is the eternal safeguard of liberty and defiance of the law is the surest road to tyranny.
John F. Kennedy
My fellow Americans, let us take that first step. Let us...step back from the shadow of war and seek out the way of peace. And if that journey is a thousand miles, or even more, let history record that we, in this land, at this time, took the first step.
John F. Kennedy
The Jewish people, ever since David slew Goliath, have never considered youth as a barrier to leadership.
