"Now we have a problem in making our power credible, and Vietnam is the place." ― John F. Kennedy Topic(s): Power Tags: problem More From John F. Kennedy "If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich." "To state the facts frankly is not to despair the future nor indict the past. The prudent heir takes careful inventory of his legacies and gives a faithful accounting to those whom he owes an obligation of trust." "Things do not happen. Things are made to happen." More In Power "Knowledge is power. Information is power. The secreting or hoarding of knowledge or information may be an act of tyranny camouflaged as humility."― Robin Morgan "It may almost be a question whether such wisdom as many of us have in our mature years has not come from the dying out of the power of temptation, rather than as the results of thought and resolution."― Anthony Trollope "The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don’t have any."― Alice Walker
