The gross national product includes air pollution and advertising for cigarettes, and ambulances to clear our highways of carnage.

Robert Kennedy
Image
People say I am ruthless. I am not ruthless. And if I find the man who is calling me ruthless, I shall destroy him.
Robert Kennedy
Image
There are those who look at things the way they are, and ask why... I dream of things that never were, and ask why not?

You're happiest while you're making the greatest contribution.
Robert Kennedy
Image
Together, we can make ourselves a nation that spends more on books than on bombs, more on hospitals than the terrible tools of war, more on decent houses than military aircraft.

Just because we cannot see clearly the end of the road, that is no reason for not setting out on the essential journey. On the contrary, great change dominates the world, and unless we move with change we will become its victims.
Robert Kennedy
Image
We can master change not though force or fear, but only though the free work of an understanding mind, though an openness to new knowledge and fresh outlooks, which can only strengthen the most fragile and most powerful of human gifts: the gift of reason.
