-) Excerpt from Inaugural Address, Jan. 20, 1961
John F. Kennedy
We dare not forget today that we are the heirs of that first revolution. Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend
and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans - bom in this century, tempered by war
disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage - and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of
those human rights to which this Nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around
the world
4 Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support
any friend, oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and the success of liberty
