Don't Quit
When things go wrong as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh.
When care is pressing you down a bit.
Rest, if you must, but don't you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns…

President John F Kennedy, U S A , is my hero of the adolescence. In those days, we hardly would get to access such speeches or articles as easily as has been made possible by internet today.
Here is his one of the epochal speeches – the speech on the inaugauartion of his Presidency.
We also have an interesting pip at the history, the first of the Kennedy-Nixon debates, which first aired on September 26, 1960 on ABC, NBC, and CBS. with his opponent , Richrd Nixon in the run up to one of the very keenly contested elections to the presidency of USA. The uploader of this video, MiscVideos78rpm , have disabled embedding of this video, hence we will have to do with this link: The 1st Kennedy/Nixon Presidential Debate . This is only first of the 3 more clips of the debate. However, they have provided following additional links to Download This Video as well:

We indeed record our sincere appreciation of MiscVideos78rpm for thier stellar effort.
Joe Carpenter has very aptly quoted the following when this speech was posted on Google +:
“All problems, depressions, wars, disasters, assassinations, all of them were planned, caused, instigated, and implemented by the International Bankers and their attempt to establish a central bank in every country in the world, which they have now done, thanks to corrupt politicians who have been bought and paid for. This is all you need to know about the history of the world.”
~John F. Kennedy~
Whilst on the subject of recollecting some of the very famous speeches, we also have the pleasure of being able to access JFK’s eternal speech at Rice University on September 12th, 1962 setting the goal of the space race during the 1960′s:
