... the United States was not ...

... the United States was not built by those who waited and rested and wished to look behind them. This country was conquered by those who moved forward, and so will space.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

But why, some say, the moon? W...

But why, some say, the moon? Why choose this as our goal? And they may well ask; why climb the highest mountain? Why, 35 years ago, fly the Atlantic? Why does Rice play Texas?

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

We go into space because whate...

We go into space because whatever mankind must undertake, free men must fully share.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

Now is the time...for this nation to take a clearly leading role in space achievement, which in many ways may hold the key to our future on Earth.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

We choose to go to the moon in...

We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

A life of complete leisure is ...

A life of complete leisure is the hardest work of all.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

I believe in an America ... where no public official either requests or accepts instructions on public policy from the Pope, the National Council of Churches, or any other ecclesiastical source.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

I was never accepted into certain parts of New England society because my grandfather was an Irish barkeep.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

If an American, because his sk...

If an American, because his skin is dark, cannot eat lunch in a restaurant open to the public, if he cannot send his children to the best public school available, if he cannot vote for the public officials who represent him, if, in short, he cannot enjoy the full and free life which all of us want, then who among us would be content to have the color of his skin changed and stand in his place? Who among us would then be content with the counsels of patience and delay?

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

If this capsule history of our...

If this capsule history of our progress teaches us anything, it is that man, in his quest for knowledge and progress, is determined and cannot be deterred.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

It is not our wealth that built our roads, but it is our roads that built our wealth.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

One hundred years of delay hav...

One hundred years of delay have passed since President Lincoln freed the slaves, yet their heirs, their grandsons, are not fully free. They are not yet freed from the bonds of injustice. They are not yet freed from social and economic oppression. 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 981 quotes

I will splinter the CIA into a thousand pieces and scatter it into the winds.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

Genuine peace must be the prod...

Genuine peace must be the product of many nations, the sum of many acts. It must be dynamic, not static, changing to meet the challenge of each new generation. For peace is a process-a way of solving problems.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

Last year, more Americans went...

Last year, more Americans went to symphonies than went to baseball games. This may be viewed as an alarming statistic, but I think that both baseball and the country will endure.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

An economy hampered by restrictive tax rates will never produce enough jobs or enough profits

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

No government or social system...

No government or social system is so evil that its people must be considered as lacking in virtue.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

Each increase of tension
has produced an increase of arms;
each increase of arms
has produced an increase of tension.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

Nuclear weapons are so destruc...

Nuclear weapons are so destructive and ballistic missiles are so swift, that any substantially increased possibility of their use or any sudden change in their deployment may well be regarded as a definite threat to peace.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

For man holds in his mortal ha...

For man holds in his mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty and all forms of human life. And yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought are still at issue around the globe -- the belief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state, but from the hand of God.
