JFK's warning, from a speech most people never read.
"We enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought." John F. Kennedy, Yale University, June 11, 1962
Kennedy argued that the real enemy of truth is not the lie, but the myth. Persistent, persuasive, unrealistic. Sixty years later, it still reads like an indictment of how power tells its own story.
The signature in the corner is Kennedy's actual handwriting, reproduced from archival sources. Not a font.
Every purchase supports independent investigative journalism on U.S. foreign policy and foreign influence. Thank you for being part of the work.
