I think the American people expect more from us than cries of indignation and attack. The times are too grave, the challenge too urgent, and the stakes too high--to permit the customary passions of political debate.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

History will not judge our end...

History will not judge our endeavors--and a government cannot be selected--merely on the basis of color or creed or even party affiliation. Neither will competence and loyalty and stature, while essential to the utmost, suffice in times such as these.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

Courage--judgment--integrity--...

Courage--judgment--integrity--dedication--these are the historic qualities of the Bay Colony and the Bay State....And these are the qualities which, with God's help, this son of Massachusetts hopes will characterize our government's conduct in the four stormy years that lie ahead.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

Abroad, the balance of power is shifting. There are new and more terrible weapons--new and uncertain nations--new pressures of population and deprivation.

Peace need not be impracticable, and war need not be inevitable.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

The world has been close to war before--but now man, who has survived all previous threats to his existence, has taken into his mortal hands the power to exterminate the entire species some seven times over.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

And a revolution of automation...

And a revolution of automation finds machines replacing men in the mines and mills of America, without replacing their incomes or their training or their needs to pay the family doctor, grocer and landlord.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

Blight has descended on our re...

Blight has descended on our regulatory agencies--and a dry rot, beginning in Washington, is seeping into every corner of America--in the payola mentality, the expense account way of life, the confusion between what is legal and what is right.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

One-third of the world, it has...

One-third of the world, it has been said, may be free- -but one-third is the victim of cruel repression--and the other one- third is rocked by the pangs of poverty, hunger and envy. More energy is released by the awakening of these new nations than by the fission of the atom itself.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

Collective bargaining has alwa...

Collective bargaining has always been the bedrock of the American labor movement. I hope that you will continue to anchor your movement to this foundation. Free collective bargaining is good for the entire Nation. In my view, it is the only alternative to State regulation of wages and prices - a path which leads far down the grim road of totalitarianism. Those who would destroy or further limit the rights of organized labor - those who would cripple collective bargaining or prevent organization of the unorganized - do

The great free nations of the world must take control of our monetary problems if these problems are not to take control of us.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

If a beach-head of cooperation...

If a beach-head of cooperation may push back the jungle of suspicion, let both sides join in creating a new endeavor, not a new balance of power, but a new world of law, where the strong are just and the weak secure and the peace preserved. All this will not be finished in the first one hundred days. Nor will it be finished in the first one thousand days, nor in the life of this Administration, nor even perhaps in our lifetime on this planet. But let us begin.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

For only when our arms are suf...

For only when our arms are sufficient beyond doubt can we be certain beyond doubt that they will never be employed.

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

Democracy is never a final achievement. It is a call to an untiring effort.

If you look throughout human history ... the central epiphany of every religious tradition always occurs in the wilderness.

probably the greatest concentration of talent and genius in this house except for perhaps those times when Thomas Jefferson ate alone.

Every American ought to have the right to be treated as he would wish to be treated, as one would wish his children to be treated. This is not the case.

We must never forget that art is not a form of propaganda; it is a form of truth.

Art is the great democrat, calling forth creative genius from every sector of society, disregarding race or religion or wealth or color

John F. Kennedy 981 quotes

And is not peace, in the last ...

And is not peace, in the last analysis, basically a matter of human rights -- the right to live out our lives without fear of devastation Ђ' the right to breathe air as nature provided it -- the right of future generations to a healthy existence?' (John F. Kennedy, June 10, 1963, American University speech)
