We are not afraid to entrust the American people with unpleasant facts, foreign ideas, alien philosophies, and competitive values. For a nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people.

This is one of my favorite Kennedy quotes, thanks.
LOVE that quote from Kennedy....
The Shakspeare quote is interesting when you think about all the plays he wrote---Filled with deception, murder, killing and revenge...lol...Well, not the Comedies....!
Thank you for the quotes, Judy. In a similar vein is this quote from Alfred Lord Tennyson: "Live pure, speak true, right wrong"

Naomi had an interesting take of Shakespeare' quote. Guess he was a lot like parents, "do as I say, not as I write."
Hi Judy,
I love it when you print these interesting quotes.
They make us all sit up and take notice and,best of all, think!
Lots of fear in this country.
