when my office would require me to either violate my conscience or violate the national interest, then I would resign the office; and I hope any conscientious public servant would do the
same.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

There will always be dissident...

There will always be dissident voices heard in the land, expressing opposition without alternatives, finding fault but never favor, perceiving gloom on every side and seeking influence without responsibility.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

Those who do nothing are invit...

Those who do nothing are inviting shame as well as violence. Those who act boldly are recognizing right as well as reality.

Philanthropy, charity, giving voluntarily and freely... call it what you like, but it is truly a jewel of an American tradition.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

The labor movement is people. ...

The labor movement is people. Our unions have brought millions of men and women together, made them members one of another, and given them common tools for common goals. Their goals are goals for all America - and their enemies are the enemies for progress. The two cannot be separated.

Will Rogers once said it is not the original investment in a Congressman that counts; it is the upkeep.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

There is a connection, hard to...

There is a connection, hard to explain logically but easy to feel, between achievement in public life and progress in the arts. The age of Pericles was also the age of Phidias. The age of Lorenzo de Medici was also the age of Leonardo da Vinci. The age Elizabeth also the age of Shakespeare. And the New Frontier for which I campaign in public life, can also be a New Frontier for American art.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

Too often in the past, we have...

Too often in the past, we have thought of the artist as an idler and dilettante and of the lover of arts as somehow sissy and effete. We have done both an injustice. The life of the artist is, in relation to his work, stern and lonely. He has labored hard, often amid deprivation, to perfect his skill. He has turned aside from quick success in order to strip his vision of everything secondary or cheapening. His working life is marked by intense application and intense discipline.

In serving his vision of the truth, the artist best serves his nation.

The Federal Budget can and should be made an instrument of prosperity and stability, not a deterrent to recovery.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

There are three things in life...

There are three things in life which are real: God, human folly and laughter. Since the first two are beyond our comprehension, we must do what we can with the third.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

It is insane that two men, sitting on opposite sides of the world, should be able to decide to bring an end to civilization.

You know nothing for sure...except the fact that you know nothing for sure.

The high office of the President has been used to foment a plot to destroy the American's freedom and before I leave office, I must inform the citizens of this plight.

Lower rates of taxation will stimulate economic activity and so raise the levels of personal and corporate income as to yield within a few years an increased - not a reduced - flow of revenues to the federal government.
