Aside from governing the country, filling the position of Commander-In-Chief, and leading Congress, our Presidents are often a great source of inspiration (or they should be). The amount of public addresses they have to make throughout their term has left us with an ample supply of Presidential pearls of wisdom. Here are a few of our favorite quotes by U.S. presidents.
#1: “A man may die, nations may rise and fall, but an idea lives on.” – John F. Kennedy
Sometimes, the most profound remarks are made in what may seem like a relatively banal context. These words weren’t even delivered live but were recorded for the 963 opening of a USIA Transmitter in North Carolina. I’m not sure how it’s connected to the event, but the quote itself is a pretty good and timeless one.
