Brillan
más su liderato, ideales demócratas y la lucha por los derechos e igualdad
humana, que la suma de fallas que se le pueda adjudicar. Su pensamiento
edificante sigue siendo foco de lumbre.
En su mensaje
inaugural el 20 de enero de 1961, dijo Kennedy:
·
“In
the long history of the world, only a few generations have been granted the
role of defending freedom in its hour of maximum danger. I do not shrink from
this responsibility—I welcome it. I do not believe that any of us would
exchange places with any other people or any other generation. The energy, the
faith, the devotion which we bring to this endeavor will light our country and
all who serve it—and the glow from that fire can truly light the world.
And
so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you—ask what you
can do for your country.
My
fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what
together we can do for the freedom of man.
Finally,
whether you are citizens of America or citizens of the world, ask of us the
same high standards of strength and sacrifice which we ask of you. With a good
conscience our only sure reward, with history the final judge of our deeds, let
us go forth to lead the land we love, asking His blessing and His help, but
knowing that here on earth God's work must truly be our own”.
Sigan las
generaciones creciendo y fructificando en la consagrada ruta ascendente.
