"I not only could not stifle controversy..." - Quote by John F Kennedy
I not only could not stifle controversy among your readers.. I welcome it. This Administration intends to be candid about its errors; for as a wise man once said: "An error does not become a mistake until you refuse to correct it." We intend to accept full responsibility for our errors; and we expect you to point them out when we miss them.

More on Responsibility
“Be miserable. Or motivate yourself. Whatever has to be done, it's always your choice.”
“If private men are obliged to perform the offices of government, to protect the weak and dispense justice, then the government becomes only a hired man, or clerk, to perform menial or indifferent services.”
“Men will now get up and walk with the baby in the middle of the night, change its diapers, and give it a bottle, but in their heart of hearts they still think they shouldn't have to.”
More on Learning
“Computers themselves, and software yet to be developed, will revolutionize the way we learn.”
“To conceal ignorance is to increase it. An honest confession of it, however, gives ground for the hope that it will diminish some day or the other.”
“I learned most, not from those who taught me but from those who talked with me.”
