I not only could not stifle controversy among your readers.. I welcome it. This Administration intends to be candid about its errors for as a wise man once said: An error does not become a mistake until you refuse to correct it. We intend to accept full responsibility for our errors and we expect you to point them out when we miss them.

John F. Kennedy
Do you realize the responsibility I carry? I'm the only person standing between Richard Nixon and the White House.
John F. Kennedy
One of the best ways to expand his horizon is through a regular reading program.
John F. Kennedy

The wave of the future is not the conquest of the world by a single dogmatic creed but the liberation of the diverse energies of free nations and free men.
John F. Kennedy
I look forward to an America which will not be afraid of grace and beauty, which will protect the beauty of our natural environment, which will preserve the great old American houses and squares and parks of our national past and which will build handsome and balanced cities for our future.
John F. Kennedy
We want to be first not first if, not first but but first!
John F. Kennedy
Hold fast to the best of the past and move fast to the best of the future.
John F. Kennedy

John F. Kennedy
