JOHN F. KENNEDY QUOTES

--A child miseducated is a child lost.
***
A man does what he must - in spite of personal consequences, in spite of obstacles and dangers and pressures - and that is the basis of all human morality.
--
A man may die, nations may rise and fall, but an idea lives on.
***
A nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people.
--
A nation which has forgotten the quality of courage which in the past has been brought to public life is not as likely to insist upon or regard that quality in its chosen leaders today - and in fact we have forgotten.
***
Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future.
==>>Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names.
--
If we cannot end now our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity.
***Let us think of education as the means of developing our greatest abilities, because in each of us there is a private hope and dream which, fulfilled, can be translated into benefit for everyone and greater strength for our nation.
--Liberty without learning is always in peril; learning without liberty is always in vain.
***
Our problems are man-made, therefore they may be solved by man. No problem of human destiny is beyond human beings.
--So, let us not be blind to our differences - but let us also direct attention to our common interests and to the means by which those differences can be resolved.
***
The time to repair the roof is when the sun is shining.
--
There are risks and costs to a program of action. But they are far less than the long-range risks and costs of comfortable inaction.
***
We must use time as a tool, not as a crutch.
--
We set sail on this new sea because there is knowledge to be gained.
***
We stand for freedom. That is our conviction for ourselves; that is our only commitment to others.
