and we are as a people inherently and historically opposed to
secret societies, to secret oaths, and to secret proceedings.
John F. Kennedy
"… there is very grave danger that an announced need for increased security will be seized upon by those anxious to expand its meaning to the very limits of official censorship and concealment. That I do not intend to permit to the extent that it's in my control."
John F Kennedy
"We are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covet means for expanding its sphere of influence; on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerillas by night instead of armies by day. It is a system which as conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly-knit highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific, and political operations. Its preparations are concealed, not published. Its mistakes are buried, not headlined. Its dissenters are silenced, not praised. No expenditure is questioned, no rumor is printed, no secret is revealed."
John F Kennedy
"The answer to the Kennedy assassination is with the Federal Reserve Bank. Don't underestimate that. It's wrong to blame it on [CIA official James] Angleton and the CIA per se only. This is only one finger of the same hand. The people who supply the money are above the CIA."
- wife of accused assassin Lee Harvey Oswald, as told to A.J. Weberman
"I have complete confidence in the response and dedication of our citizens whenever they are fully informed."
John F Kennedy
"In rejecting an expanded military involvement, Kennedy went against the Joint Chiefs and a host of high level people in his government, including (CFR members) Dean Rusk, Robert McNamara, and McGeorge and William Bundy."
- Donald Gibson
"The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie -- deliberate, contrived and dishonest, but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic. Belief in myths allows the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought."
John F Kennedy
" Kennedy apparently reasoned that by returning to the Constitution, which states that only Congress shall coin and regulate money, the soaring national debt could be reduced by not paying interest to the bankers of the Federal Reserve System, who print paper money then loan it to the government at interest."
- Jim Marrs, "Rule By Secrecy", p. 129
"Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable."
John F Kennedy
"Kennedy's support for economic development and Third World nationalism and his tolerance for government economic planning, even when it involved expropriation of property owned by interests in the U.S., all led to conflicts between Kennedy and elites within both the U.S. and foreign nations."
- Donald Gibson
"The men who create power make an indispensable contribution to the Nation's greatness, but the men who question power make a contribution just as indispensable, especially when that questioning is disinterested, for they determine whether we use power or power uses us."
John F Kennedy
"The ignorance of one voter in a democracy impairs the security of all."
John F Kennedy
"When we got into office, the thing that surprised me the most was that things were as bad as we'd been saying they were."
