More quotes by John F. Kennedy
There has also been a change - a slippage - in our intellectual and moral strength. Seven lean years of drouth and famine have withered a field of ideas.
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
Political sovereignty is but a mockery without the means of meeting poverty and illiteracy and disease. Self-determination is but a slogan if the future holds no hope.
John F. Kennedy
I am not the Catholic candidate for President. I am the Democratic Party's candidate for President, who happens also to be a Catholic.
John F. Kennedy
My experience in government is that when things are non-controversial and beautifully coordinated, there is not much going on.
John F. Kennedy
I believe in an America where the separation of church and state is absolute - where no Catholic prelate would tell the president (should he be Catholic) how to act. I do not speak for my church on public matters - and the church does not speak for me.
John F. Kennedy
I have seen in many places housing which has been developed under government influences, but I have never seen any projects in which governments have played their part which have fountains and statues and grass and trees, which are as important to the concept of the home as the roof itself.
John F. Kennedy
Most cities are nouns. New York's a verb.
John F. Kennedy
A country is as strong, really, as its citizens. And I think that mental and physical health - mental and physical vigor - go hand in hand.
John F. Kennedy
The new and terrible dangers which man has created can only be controlled by man.
John F. Kennedy
The time to repair the roof is when the sun is shining.
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
To be courageous requires no exceptional qualifications, no magic formula, no special combination of time, place, and circumstance. It is an opportunity that sooner or later is presented to us all.
John F. Kennedy
Wealth is the means, and people are the ends. All our material riches will avail us little if we do not use them to expand the opportunities of our people.
John F. Kennedy
Those whom nature hath so joined together, let no man put asunder
John F. Kennedy
If this capsule history of our progress teaches us anything, it is that man, in his quest for knowledge and progress, is determined and cannot be deterred.
John F. Kennedy
There's an old saying. Never send a boy to do a man's job, send a lady.
John F. Kennedy
Those who do nothing are inviting shame as well as violence. Those who act boldly are recognizing right as well as reality.
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
If art is to nourish the roots of our culture, society must set the artist free to follow his vision wherever it takes him.
John F. Kennedy
