"Harvard gave me an education, but Junior..." - Quote by John F Kennedy

“All my life Ive known better than to depend on the experts. How could I have been so stupid, to let them go ahead?”

“This is not a time to keep the facts from the people-to keep them complacent. To sound the alarm is not to panic but to seek action from an aroused public. For, as the poet Dante once said: 'The hottest places in hell are reserved for those who, in a time of great moral crisis, maintain their neutrality.”

“We cannot be satisfied with things as they are. We cannot be satisfied to drift, to rest on our oars, to glide over a sea whose depths are shaken by subterranean upheavals.”

“Education that consists in learning things and not the meaning of them is feeding upon the husks and not the corn”

“We cannot always build a future for our youth, but we can always build our youth for the future.”

“Power educates the potentate.”

“So let me tell you, as you prepare to go off into the world, remember six rules: Trust yourself, Break some rules, Don't be afraid to fail, Ignore the naysayers, Work like hell, and Give something back.”

“It is one of the beautiful compensations in this life that no one can sincerely try to help another without helping himself.”

“Everybody's got a right to be a sucker ... once.”
