John F. Kennedy Quotes:

Ocupation: 35th U.S. President

Life: May 29, 1917 - November 22, 1963

Birthday: May 29

Death: November 22

Those who came before us made certain that this country rode the first waves of the industrial revolution, the first waves of modern invention and the first wave of nuclear power. And this generation does not intend to founder in the backwash of the coming age of space. We mean to be part of it-we mean to lead it.

- John F. Kennedy
