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.

Tomorrow it can form the framework for a world of law--a world in which no nation dictates the destiny of another, and in which the vast resources now devoted to destructive means will serve constructive ends.

Through hot wars and cold, through recession and prosperity, through the ages of the atom and outer space, the American people have never faltered and their faith has never flagged.

There is no longer any reason why American children should suffer from polio, diphtheria, whooping cough, or tetanus.
