More quotes by John F. Kennedy
While it may be theoretically possible to demonstrate the risks inherent in any treaty... the far greater risk to our security are the risks of unrestricted testing, the risks of a nuclear arms race, the risks of new nuclear powers.
John F. Kennedy
Ask not that the journey be easy ask instead that it be worth it.
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
A child miseducated is a child lost.
John F. Kennedy
Science contributes to our culture in many ways, as a creative intellectual activity in its own right, as the light which has served to illuminate man's place in the universe, and as the source of understanding of man's own nature.
John F. Kennedy
We must face the fact that the United States is neither omnipotent nor omniscient, that we cannot impose our will upon the other 94 percent of mankind, that we cannot right every wrong or reverse every adversity, and that therefore there cannot be an American solution to every world problem.
John F. Kennedy
What really counts is not the immediate act of courage or of valor, but those who bear the struggle day in and day out - not the sunshine patriots but those who are willing to stand for a long period of time.
John F. Kennedy
A wall is a hell of a lot better than a war.
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

John F. Kennedy
When I was growing up I had three wishes. I wanted to be a Lindbergh-type hero, learn Chinese, and become a member of The Algonquin Round Table.
John F. Kennedy
The basis of effective government is public confidence, and that confidence is endangered when ethical standards falter or appear to falter.
John F. Kennedy
This country cannot afford to be materially rich and spiritually poor.
John F. Kennedy
But however close we sometimes seem to that dark and final abyss, let no man of peace and freedom despair. For he does not stand alone.
John F. Kennedy
If we are to go only halfway or reduce our sights in the face of difficulty... it would be better to not go at all.
John F. Kennedy
The mere absence of war is not peace.
John F. Kennedy
The very word Secrecy is repugnant in a free and open society.
John F. Kennedy
Privilege is here, and with privilege goes responsibility.
John F. Kennedy
The basis of self-government and freedom requires the development of character and self-restraint and perseverance and the long view. And these are qualities which require many years of training and education.
John F. Kennedy
There are no 'white' or 'coloured' signs on the foxholes or graveyards of battle.
