More quotes by 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
I believe in human dignity as the source of national purpose, human liberty as the source of national action, the human heart as the source of national compassion, and in the human mind as the source of our invention and our ideas
John F. Kennedy

John F. Kennedy

John F. Kennedy
I can evade questions without help what I need is answers
John F. Kennedy

John F. Kennedy
Peace does not rest in charters and covenants alone. It lies in the hearts and minds of the people.
John F. Kennedy
Our problems are man-made, therefore they may be solved by man
John F. Kennedy
We cannot reform the world.... Uncle Sugar is as dangerous a role for us to play as Uncle Shylock.
John F. Kennedy
To each of us is entrusted the heavy responsibility of guiding the affairs of a democratic nation founded on Christian ideals.
John F. Kennedy
No responsibility of government is more fundamental than the responsibility of maintaining the highest standard of ethical behavior for those who conduct the public business.
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
The processes of growth are gradual, bearing fruit in a decade, not a day.
John F. Kennedy
There's an old saying. Never send a boy to do a man's job, send a lady.

We should not let our fears hold us back from pursuing our hopes.
John F. Kennedy
