John Kennedy actually said...

Mr. President, we welcomed you here with your reputation well before and you, also, because of our high regard for your country.

I want to express a very warm welcome to you to this House and also again to this country.

We cannot always control events, but we can always control our attitude toward events.

To the prosperity of his people and to his well-being, I hope you will all drink to President Radhakrishnan.
