We're willing to find a way to work with you and do some negotiation. Maybe we could look at some other options.

Let us never negotiate out of fear. But let us never fear to negotiate.

The freedom of the city is not negotiable. We cannot negotiate with those who say, "What's mine is mine and what's yours is negotiable."

Let us never negotiate out of fear. But, let us never fear to negotiate.

Let us never negotiate out of fear. But let us never fear to negotiate.

[Inaugural Address, January 20 1961]
