Leadership

Instead, we will try to be the very first among those who work to make it grow in strength and in service to peace.

We are proud of you, and gratified for the example that you have set.

Yes, in the words of our great President, this country is moving again.

They want to have their leaders tell them what their problems are, and they don't want to deal in personalities.

No one man can lead this country.

We have just completed a 2-hour Cabinet meeting and I will summarize briefly statements made at that meeting.

First things must come first.

It is the only ruler that free men desire.

We wish you many more years in which you can lead and inspire the great Irish nation and lend your wise counsel to us all.

I have selected the best personality in this country for that job.

Now it's up to us to keep that pledge in our time.

The real work of any President is not for his own time but times to come.

A President who refuses to go out among the people, who refuses to be judged by the people, who is unwilling to lay his case before the people, can never be President of all the people.

Working together with the people of Nevada, that great democratic State leading the way, we will continue it.

I am proud to say to you tonight that I sat in all but one of those 37 meetings, and the coolest man in that room all the time was the man that you people had selected to lead you, John Fitzgerald Kennedy

I will try to unite our people; I will never try to divide them.

The future of this Nation lies here in the West, but you must have leadership.

I haven't been here very long, but I don't have to be here very long now to see how the West is going to be won.
