I want to emphasize in the great concentration which we now place upon scientists and engineers how much we still need the men and women educated in the liberal tradition, willing to take the long look, undisturbed by prejudices and slogans of the moment, who attempt to make an honest judgment on difficult events.

More From John F. Kennedy

We need scientists to design new fuels. we need farmers to help grow them. we need engineers to invent new technologies. we need entrepreneurs to sell those technologies. we need workers to operate assembly lines that hum with high-tech, zero-carbon components. we need builders to hammer into place the foundations for a clean energy age. we need diplomats and businessmen and women, and peace corps volunteers to help developing nations skip past the dirty phase of development and transition to sustainable sources of energy. in other words, we need you.

I hope climate science becomes the big thing. and then what i want is electrical engineers to solve the world's energy problems, energy distribution problems. i want mechanical engineers to make better transportation systems. i want chemical engineers to develop better solar panels, and so on.

We must believe that "emotion recollected in tranquillity" is an inexact formula. for it is neither emotion, nor recollection, nor without distortion of meaning, tranquillity. it is a concentration, and a new thing resulting from the concentration of a very great number of experiences which to the practical and active person would not seem to be experiences at all; it is a concentration which does not happen consciously or of deliberation. these experiences are not "recollected" and they finally unite in an atmosphere which is "tranquil" only in that it is a passive attending upon the event.

Supporters of this fundamental change in immigration policy say we need to import more well-educated talent if we're to stay competitive. but exactly whose competitiveness are we talking about? not the competitiveness of, say, american-born computer engineers. adjusted for inflation, their earnings haven't gone anywhere in years. that's in part because american companies have been sending so much of their high-tech work abroad. bringing more foreign-born engineers here under an expanded h1-b visa program, or a point system for that matter, will just depress wages even further.
Depressing Talking Years
Since we all came from a women, got our name from a women, and our game from a women. i wonder why we take from women, why we rape our women, do we hate our women? i think its time we killed for our women, be real to our women, try to heal our women, cus if we dont we'll have a race of babies that will hate the ladies, who make the babies. and since a man can't make one he has no right to tell a women when and where to create one

The attempt to live that way, the attempt to treat everybody - it fails all the time - but the attempt to treat people as equals is a good attempt. it's a very good attempt. and there have been very few governments that have come anywhere near it in the past. the greeks began to, the romans began to - they both failed.

The past is of no importance. the present is of no importance. it is with the future that we have to deal. for the past is what man should not have been. the present is what man ought not to be. the future is what artists are. the facts: nothing matters but the facts: worship of the facts leads to everything, to happiness first of all and then to wealth.
Men Artist Past
Even for the diseases we don't focus on, cancer, heart disease, you're going to be way better off being sick 10 years from now than any time in the past.
Cancer Heart Past
I think that fiction and, as i say, history and biography are immensely important, not only for their own sake, because they provide a picture of life now and of life in the past, but also as vehicles for the expression of general philosophic ideas, religious ideas, social ideas.
Religious Past Thinking
There is not past, no future; everything flows in an eternal present.
Past Flow Eternal
