From John F. Kennedy (1917–1963), 35th president of the United States, Remarks on the 20th Anniversary of the Voice of America; Department of Health, Education, and Welfare (February 26, 1962):
We are not afraid to entrust the American people with unpleasant facts, foreign ideas, alien philosophies, and competitive values. For a nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people.
