| 0:00.0 | Welcome to JFK in The Enduring Secret. |
| 0:11.4 | I'm your host, Jeff Crudell. And so, my fellow America, ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country. |
| 0:48.3 | I pledge you that we shall neither commit nor provoke aggression, that we shall neither flee nor invoke the threat of force, that we shall never negotiate out of fear, and we shall never fear to negotiate. Terror is not |

| 2:19.2 | The cost of freedom is always high, but Americans have always paid it. |
| 2:25.1 | And one path we shall never choose, and that is the path of surrender or submission. |
| 2:31.4 | We choose to go to the moon. |
| 2:34.1 | We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are |
| 2:40.0 | easy, but because they are hard. |
