Kennedy’s Oval Office Desk Plaque. In 1963, Admiral Rickover, who oversaw the development of the nation’s nuclear navy and was the driving force behind the construction of the first nuclear-powered submarine, gave President John F. Kennedy a plaque inscribed with the Breton Fisherman's Prayer, which states "O God, the sea is so great and my boat is so small." Rickover gave the quote to all new submarine captains entering Naval service under his command. This piece communicates the vast beauty and terror of the world that humanity has to contend with, along with the importance of mindfulness and humility in our relationship with the world for all people, particularly our leaders. Kennedy treasured the plaque and kept it on his desk in the Oval Office throughout his Presidency. The original plaque is on display in the Museum at the John F. Kennedy Library in Boston as part of its Oval Office exhibit. Offering an exact replica, cast in brass and mounted on a solid mahogany base (Includes a copy of the "thank you" letter from JFK to Rickover). Housed in a Gift Box, an unusual gift for fishermen, sailors or anyone connected to the sea.
