John F. Kennedy
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
John F. Kennedy

John F. Kennedy
We shall be judged more by what we do at home than what we preach abroad.
John F. Kennedy
Our problems are man-made, therefore they may be solved by man
John F. Kennedy
There is, in addition to a courage with which men die a courage by which men must live.
John F. Kennedy
Immigration policy should be generous it should be fair it should be flexible. With such a policy we can turn to the world, and to our own past, with clean hands and a clear conscience.
John F. Kennedy
Someone always needs rescuing, yet there's only one person who ever seems to understand you. It's a lot like being Lassie.
John F. Kennedy
A great change is at hand, and our task, our obligation, is to make that revolution, that change, peaceful and constructive for all.
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
