JFK made so many memorable speeches that were poignant, delivered with eloquence and inspired many in his time but are they still inspirational today?
The 60's was a period of unprecedented change across the world and few men had an impact like JFK. I have posted over the past few days quotes from 3 other men who for me helped to change the world. JFK is the 4th.

If you haven't seen the others please click the links and take a look at what these men said. Sadly not enough kids today are taught about these great men in school. In the USA I'm sure they are taught however the rest of the world can learn from the words and deeds of all of these icons.
Back to JFK.
If you don't know a lot about him take the time to research him as he was an incredible and flawed man but no doubt a true Stateman. Click below for his biography .

So let's see what he said.
This needs to be true or were in big trouble in the future.
Always.
He was without doubt an example of this.
Prophetic. The revolution he spoke of may have happened but we are on the cusp of another. Heed the words.
Wise words, all leaders in the world should take on board.
We seem to be heading that way.
Sadly this will always be true.
A simple statement worthy of Ghandi.
Considering the USA is now $20trillion in debt this statement holds true.
Deep and meaningful.
Visionary and they did it with 6 months to spare even though he been dead for nearly 6 years.
Wise words yet again.
Beautiful.
There are so many more wise words I could have put into this piece and you can look at others here.....
