John F. Kennedy in Quotations is a compilation of more than 2,000 quotations selected from the speeches and other public addresses that Kennedy delivered to an audience, either in person or in a radio or television broadcast, during his term as president, and earlier, between Kennedy's January 2, 1960, announcement of his intention to seek the Democratic Party's nomination for president and the November 8 general election.
