John F. Kennedy delivered this speech in 1961 at the start of his term as US president.
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.
