"Expansion and modernization of the nation's productive..." - Quote by John F Kennedy

“Great crises produce great men, and great deeds of courage.”

“And so it is to the printing press--to the recorder of mans deeds, the keeper of his conscience, the courier of his news-- that we look for strength and assistance, confident that with your help man will be what he was born to be: free and independent.”

“The torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans, born in this century... unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today.”

“Concentrated power has always been the enemy of liberty. Democracy is worth dying for, because it's the most deeply honorable form of government ever devised by man.Entrepreneurs and their small enterprises are responsible for almost all the economic growth in the United States.”

“In America, we then made a commitment, particularly after World War II with the GI Bill, to massively expand our commitment to college education, and that meant we had more engineers and we had more scientists and that meant we had better technology, which meant that we were more productive and we could succeed in the global marketplace.”

“It is our generation's task, then, to reignite the true engine of America's economic growth - a rising, thriving middle class.”

“Mr Edison gave America just what was needed at that moment in history. They say that when people think of me, they think of my assembly line. Mr. Edison, you built an assembly line which brought together the genius of invention, science and industry.”

“We can say with certainty - or 90% probability - that the new industries that are about to be born will have nothing to do with information.”

“Industry and patience are the surest means of plenty.”
