Some Poems

Liberty without learning is always in peril learning without liberty is always in vain.
We stand for freedom. That is our conviction for ourselves that is our only commitment to others.
Mankind must put an end to war or war will put an end to mankind.
There are risks and costs to a program of action. But they are far less than the long-range risks and costs of comfortable inaction.
To those people in the huts and villages of half the globe struggling to break the bonds of mass misery, we pledge our best efforts to help them help themselves, for whatever period is required, not because the Communists may be doing it, not because we seek their votes, but because it is right. If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich.
We must use time as a tool, not as a couch.
When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
We choose to go to the moon. We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too.
If I am to die, this is the week for it. -- John F. Kennedy (to aide John McClone in response to a CIA report about rumours of an assassination plot), June 1962.
Our task is not to fix the blame for the past, but to fix the course for the future.
