Our most basic common link is that we all inhabit this small planet.

We must use time as a tool, not as a couch.

So let us begin anew -- remembering on both sides that civility is not a sign of weakness, and sincerity is always subject to proof. Let us never negotiate out of fear, but let us never fear to negotiate. Let both sides explore what problems unite us instead of belaboring those problems which divide us.

Each increase of tension has produced an increase of arms each increase of arms has produced an increase of tension.

Whether they be young in spirit, or young in age, the members of the Democratic Party must never lose that youthful zest for new ideas and for a better world, which has made us great.

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

A medical revolution has extended the life of our elder citizens without providing the dignity and security those later years deserve.

Budget deficits are not caused by wild-eyed spenders, but by slow economic growth and periodic recessions. And any new recession would break all deficit records. In short, it is a paradoxical truth that tax rates are too high today and tax revenues are too low, and the soundest way to raise the revenues in the long run is to cut the rates now.
John F. Kennedy
Image
And a revolution of automation finds machines replacing men in the mines and mills of America, without replacing their incomes or their training or their needs to pay the family doctor, grocer and landlord.

Ask not what your community can do for you ask what your community can not do for anyone else.

Now we have a problem in making our power credible, and Vietnam is the place.

[War] can no longer be of concern to great powers alone.

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.

Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names.

Democracy is the superior form of government, because it is based on a respect for man as a reasonable being.

If we cannot now end our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity.

There is always inequity in life. Some men are killed in war and some men are wounded some men never leave the country, some men are stationed in the Antarctic and some are stationed in San Francisco. It's very hard in military or in personal life to assure complete equality. Life is unfair.
