<blockquote>"This is a book about that most admirable of human virtues-- courage. 'Grace under pressure,' Ernest Hemingway defined it. And these are the stories of the pressures experienced by eight United States Senators and the grace with which they endured them."
-- John F. Kennedy</p></blockquote>
During 1954-1955, John F. Kennedy, then a U.S. Senator, chose eight of his historical colleagues to profile for their acts of astounding integrity in the face of overwhelming opposition. These heroes include John Quincy Adams, Daniel Webster, Thomas Hart Benton, and Robert A. Taft.</p>
Awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1957, Profiles in Courage -- now reissued in this handsome hardcover edition, featuring a new introduction by Caroline Kennedy, as well as Robert Kennedy's foreword written for the memorial edition of the volume in 1964 -- resounds with timeless lessons on the most cherished of virtues and is a powerful reminder of the strength of the human spirit. It is as Robert Kennedy states in the foreword, "not just stories of the past but a hook of hope and confidence for the future. What happens to the country, to the world, depends on what we do with what others have left us."</p>

評分Having the wisdom to see both sides, to know the dire consequences, and yet went with the unpopular side anyway. Public opinion crushed their future. But these courageous men still managed to walk away with their heads held high and their integrity intact. Only time would tell, and JFK did it for them. Finished on 2015/07/17
信仰,是对某种主张、主义、宗教的极度相信和尊敬,是说起来很虚的东西。但是,从比干不惧纣王剖心、伯夷叔齐不食周粟,到文天祥从容赴死、陆秀夫纵身跳海,到史可法誓不降清、谭嗣同引颈就戳,到刘胡兰、瞿秋白、董存瑞、黄继光英勇就义,却在雄辩的证明,信仰可以给人以勇气...

評分《肯尼迪:信仰在风中飘扬》事关美国历史,行文中处处提到联邦党、辉格党、民主党、共和党等。下面的小文帮助读者了解这些党派的由来和立场。 美国政党的产生是18世纪末的事情。乔治·华盛顿曾有过一个天真的想法,他认为这个新兴的国家没有政党一样也能存在,他曾说,“如果...
評分诸君现在捧在手中的,是约翰·肯尼迪的普利策图书获奖作品。约翰·肯尼迪是普利策奖1917年创办以来得此殊荣的唯一一位美国总统,尽管本书并非写于他政务繁忙而短暂的三年总统任上。酝酿此书主题时,肯尼迪进入联邦参议院不久,之前仅在地方上担任过六年州议员(马萨诸塞州),...
