President John Kennedy

Famous quotes containing the words president, john and/or kennedy:

And barefoot servants round him, who adjust
The curtains to a metaphysical t
And the banners of the nation flutter, burst
On the flag-poles in a red-blue dazzle, whack
At the halyards.”

But John, unhappily, thought fit
To publish it to all the nation:
Sure John and I are more than quit.”

“I met Jack Kennedy in November, 1946.... We went out on a double date and it turned out to be a fair evening for me. I seduced a girl who would have been bored by a diamond as big as the Ritz.”
