John F. Kennedy
Let us resolve to be masters, not the victims, of our history, controlling our own destiny without giving way to blind suspicions and emotions.

I am certain that after the dust of centuries has passed over our cities, we, too, will be remembered not for victories or defeats in battle or in politics, but for our contribution to the human spirit.
John F. Kennedy
Do not pray for easy lives. Pray to be stronger men.
John F. Kennedy
Efforts and courage are not enough without purpose and direction
John F. Kennedy
All this will not be finished in the first one hundred days. Nor will it be finished in the first thousand days, nor in the life of this administration, nor even perhaps in our lifetime on this planet. But let us begin.
John F. Kennedy
The courage of life is often a less dramatic spectacle than the courage of the final moment; but it is no less a magnificent mixture of triumph and tragedy.
Harry S. Truman
We believe that all men are created equal because they are created in the image of God.
Harry S. Truman
America was not built on fear. America was built on courage, on imagination, and unbeatable determination to do the job at hand.
William Howard Taft
I have come to the conclusion that the major part of the work of a President is to increase the gate receipts of expositions and fairs and bring tourists to town.
Ronald Reagan
America has begun a spiritual reawakening. Faith and hope are being restored. Americans are turning back to God. Church attendance is up. Audiences for religious books and broadcasts are growing. And I do believe that he has begun to heal our blessed land.
Ronald Reagan
Double, no triple, our troubles and we'd still be better off than any other people on earth. It is time that we recognized that ours was, in truth, a noble cause.
Ronald Reagan
If some among you fear taking a stand because you are afraid of reprisals from customers, clients, or even government, recognize that you are just feeding the crocodile hoping he'll eat you last.
Ronald Reagan
The best minds are not in government. If any were, business would hire them away.
Ronald Reagan
The government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.
When you are in any contest you should work as if there were - to the very last minute - a chance to lose it.
Theodore Roosevelt
Far and away the best prize that life offers is the chance to work hard at work worth doing.
Theodore Roosevelt
It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed. In this life we get nothing save by effort.
Theodore Roosevelt
Get action. Seize the moment. Man was never intended to become an oyster.
Abraham Lincoln
When you have got an elephant by the hind leg, and he is trying to run away, it's best to let him run.
Patriotism is easy to understand in America; it means looking out for yourself by looking out for your country.
Calvin Coolidge
Don't expect to build up the weak by pulling down the strong.
Calvin Coolidge
I have found it advisable not to give too much heed to what people say when I am trying to accomplish something of consequence. Invariably they proclaim it can't be done. I deem that the very best time to make the effort.
Calvin Coolidge
Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination are omnipotent. The slogan press on has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race. No person was ever honored for what he received. Honor has been the reward for what he gave.
Calvin Coolidge
Heroism is not only in the man, but in the occasion.
A man is not finished when he's defeated; he's finished when he quits.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Confidence... thrives only on honesty, on honor, on the sacredness of obligation, on faithful performance. Without them, it cannot live.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
The country needs and, unless I mistake its temper, the country demands bold, persistent experimentation. It is common sense to take a method and try it; if it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something.
