HomeFortune CookiesQuotations By Famous People

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 -- born
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.
-- John F. Kennedy, Inaugural Address
