Inaugural Address

On a frigid Winter's day, January 20, 1961, John

Fitzgerald Kennedy took the oath of office as the 35th

President of the United States. At age 43, he was the

youngest man and the first Roman Catholic ever elected.

He had won by one of the smallest margins of victory,

only 115,000 popular votes. This is the speech he

delivered announcing the dawn of a new era as young

Americans born in the 20th century first assumed

leadership of the Nation.

Vice President Johnson, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Chief

Justice, President Eisenhower, Vice President Nixon,

President Truman, reverend clergy, fellow citizens, we

observe today not a victory of party, but a celebration

of freedom -- symbolizing an end, as well as a beginning

-- signifying renewal, as well as change. For I have

sworn before you and Almighty God the same solemn oath

our forebears prescribed nearly a century and three

quarters ago.

The world is very different now. For man holds in his

mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of human

poverty and all forms of human life. And yet the same

revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought are

still at issue around the globe -- the belief that the

rights of man come not from the generosity of the state,

but from the hand of God.

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, 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,

and to which we are committed today at home and around

the world.

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, to

assure the survival and the success of liberty.

This much we pledge and more.

To those old allies whose cultural and spiritual

origins we share, we pledge the loyalty of faithful

friends. United, there is little we cannot do in a host

of cooperative ventures. Divided, there is little we can

do -- for we dare not meet a powerful challenge at odds

and split asunder.

To those new States whom we welcome to the ranks of

the free, we pledge our word that one form of colonial

control shall not have passed away merely to be replaced

by a far more iron tyranny. We shall not always expect to

find them supporting our view. But we shall always hope

to find them strongly supporting their own freedom -- and

to remember that, in the past, those who foolishly sought

power by riding the back of the tiger ended up inside.

To those peoples in the huts and villages across 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.

To our sister republics south of our border, we offer

a special pledge -- to convert our good words into good
