More quotes by John F. Kennedy
Once you say you're going to settle for second, that's what happens to you in life.
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
The basis of effective government is public confidence.
John F. Kennedy
We want to be first not first if, not first but but first!
John F. Kennedy
In seeking the help of the Congress and our countrymen, I pledged no easy answers. I pledged, and asked, only toil and dedication. These the Congress and the people have given in good measure.
John F. Kennedy
I think this is the most extraordinary collection of talent, of human knowledge, that has ever been gathered at the White House - with the possible exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone.
John F. Kennedy
Forbidden fruit tastes sweet, but its aftertaste is bitter.
John F. Kennedy
Philanthropy, charity, giving voluntarily and freely... call it what you like, but it is truly a jewel of an American tradition.
John F. Kennedy
We would like to live as we once lived, but history will not permit it.
John F. Kennedy
Harvard gave me an education, but Junior Chamber gave me an education for life.
John F. Kennedy
But wherever we are, we must all, in our daily lives, live up to the age-old faith that peace and freedom walk together. In too many of our cities today, the peace is not secure because freedom is incomplete. (John F. Kennedy, June 10, 1963, American University speech)
John F. Kennedy
Whether I serve one or two terms in the Presidency, I will find myself at the end of that period at what might be called the awkward age-too old to begin a new career and too young to write my memoirs.
John F. Kennedy
In addition, the United States Delegation will suggest a series of steps to improve the United Nations machinery for the peaceful settlement of disputes... - for extending the rule of international law. For peace is not solely a matter of military or technical problems - it is primarily a problem of politics and people.
John F. Kennedy
Success has many fathers.
John F. Kennedy
Art establishes the basic human truths which must serve as the touchstones of our judgement. The artist... faithful to his personal vision of reality, becomes the last champion of the individual mind and sensibility against an intrusive society and an offensive state.
John F. Kennedy
Privilege is here, and with privilege goes responsibility.
John F. Kennedy
And this Nation, for all its hopes and all its boasts, will not be fully free until all its citizens are free.
John F. Kennedy
We have all seen these circus elephants complete with tusks, ivory in their head and thick skins, who move around the circus ring and grab the tail of the elephant ahead of them.
John F. Kennedy
If men and women are in chains anywhere in the world, then freedom is endangered everywhere.
John F. Kennedy
Our deep spiritual confidence that this nation will survive the perils of today - which may well be with us for decades to come - compels us to invest in our nation's future, to consider and meet our obligations to our children and the numberless generations that will follow.
John F. Kennedy
