More quotes by John F. Kennedy
I am the one person who can truthfully say, I got my job through the New York Times.
John F. Kennedy
I am flatly opposed to appointment of an ambassador to the Vatican. Whatever advantages it might have in Rome - and I'm not convinced of these - they would be more than offset by the divisive effect at home.
John F. Kennedy
The world knows that America will never start a war. This generation of Americans has had enough of war and hate... we want to build a world of peace where the weak are secure and the strong are just.
John F. Kennedy
We prefer world law in the age of self-determination to world war in the age of mass extermination.
John F. Kennedy

John F. Kennedy
Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names.
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
A child miseducated is a child lost.
John F. Kennedy
Last year, more Americans went to symphonies than went to baseball games. This may be viewed as an alarming statistic, but I think that both baseball and the country will endure.
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
The United States has to move very fast to even stand still.
John F. Kennedy
Libraries should be open to all - except the censor.
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
We believe that if men have the talent to invent new machines that put men out of work, they have the talent to put those men back to work.
John F. Kennedy
Immigration policy should be generous it should be fair it should be flexible. With such a policy we can turn to the world, and to our own past, with clean hands and a clear conscience.
John F. Kennedy
If we are strong, our strength will speak for itself. If we are weak, words will be of no help.
John F. Kennedy
The Chinese use two brush strokes to write the word 'crisis.' One brush stroke stands for danger the other for opportunity. In a crisis, be aware of the danger--but recognize the opportunity.
John F. Kennedy
I do not speak for my church on public matters and the church does not speak for me.
John F. Kennedy
