I wake up 5 a.m. some mornings and hear the planes coming in at National Airport and I think they are bombing me.

All I have I would have given gladly not to be standing here today.

No nation in the world has had greater fortune than mine in sharing a continent with the people and the nation of Canada.

I'm the only president you've got.

Doing the right thing is not the problem. Knowing what the right thing is, that's the challenge.

Whoever won't fight when the President calls him, deserves to be kicked back in his hole and kept there.

For me, it is a deep personal tragedy. I know that the world shares the sorrow that Mrs. Kennedy and her family bear. I will do my best. That is all I can do. I ask for your help - and God's.
