PRESIDENT JOHN FITZGERALD KENNEDY, MEMORABLE WORDS!

Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future.:- John F. Kennedy

Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names.:- John F. Kennedy

If we cannot end now our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity.:- John F. Kennedy

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.:- John F. Kennedy

Liberty without learning is always in peril; learning without liberty is always in vain.:- John F. Kennedy

Our problems are man-made, therefore they may be solved by man. No problem of human destiny is beyond human beings.:- John F. Kennedy

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.:- John F. Kennedy

The American, by nature, is optimistic. He is experimental, an inventor and a builder who builds best when called upon to build greatly.:- John F. Kennedy

The ancient Greek definition of happiness was the full use of your powers along lines of excellence.:- John F. Kennedy

The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie -- deliberate, contrived and dishonest, but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic. Belief in myths allows the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought.:John F. Kennedy

The great French Marshall Lyautey once asked his gardener to plant a tree. The gardener objected that the tree was slow growing and would not reach maturity for 100 years. The Marshall replied, 'In that case, there is no time to lose; plant it this afternoon!' :- John F. Kennedy

The time to repair the roof is when the sun is shining:-. John F. Kennedy

Washington is a city of Southern efficiency and Northern charm.:-John F. Kennedy

We must use time as a tool, not as a crutch.:- John F. Kennedy

We set sail on this new sea because there is knowledge to be gained.:- John F. Kennedy

We stand for freedom. That is our conviction for ourselves; that is our only commitment to others.:- John F. Kennedy

When we got into office, the thing that surprised me the most was that things were as bad as we'd been saying they were.:- John F. Kennedy

The men who create power make an indispensable contribution to the Nation’s greatness, but the men who question power make a contribution just as indispensable, especially when that questioning is disinterested, for they determine whether we use power or power uses us.:- John F. Kennedy

Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.
:- John F. Kennedy
