RIP President John F. Kennedy  |  May 29, 1917 – November 22, 1963 

“He always seemed to be striding through doors into the center of some starting triumph or disaster.  He never reached  his meridian: we saw him only as a rising sun.” –New York Times’ James Reston

“He died in time to be remembered as he would like to be remembered, as ever young, still victorious, stuck down undefeated, with almost all the potentates and rulers of mankind, friend and foe, come to mourn at the bier.” –Journalist I.F. Stone  

“He was an incendiary man who set most of the people around him on fire.  He was really fun to work with him.” – Secretary of State Dean Rusk   

“Kennedy was a magnificent natural leader.  He was like a red-haired Irish sea-raider.  Everyone had the natural feeling they’d follow him anywhere.  He was quick and funny, and committed to all the right purposes.  He was the guy you’d want to follow into the machine-gun fire.” –Budget director David Bell    

“When he  came into the room he was like the sun: he radiated confidence and victory.”  –State Department official Pedro Sanjuan     

“He treated us more as colleagues or associates than employees.  He made clear that we were there to give advice as well as take orders.” –Ted Sorensen   

“I can’t imagine a better boss.  He gave you enough discretion, but at the same time you knew you were going to have his support even if you did something a little bit wrong.  He wouldn’t criticize you in front of anybody else.”  –Domestic affairs assistant Myer Feldman  

“Everybody on the staff really liked him and respected him.  You’d really knock yourself out doing anything you could for him.  He was terrific.” –Staff assistant Ralph Dungan
