More from John F. Kennedy
While we shall never weary in the defense of freedom, neither shall we ever abandon the pursuit of peace.
The modern globe is too small, its weapons are too destructive, and its disorders are too contagious to permit any other kind of victory.
For we seek not the worldwide victory of one nation or system but a worldwide victory of man.
If they choose peaceful competition, they shall have it.
