John F. Kennedy

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

John F. Kennedy

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
Show me a man with a great golf game, and I’ll show you a man who has been neglecting something.
John F. Kennedy
There is no sense in agreeing or desiring that the United States take an affirmative position in outer space, unless we are prepared to do the work and bear the burdens to make it successful.
John F. Kennedy
I will splinter the CIA into a thousand pieces and scatter it into the winds.
John F. Kennedy
The US Airforce assures me that UFO's pose no threat to National Security.
John F. Kennedy
A child miseducated is a child lost.
John F. Kennedy
Do not pray for easy lives. Pray to be stronger men.
