Jimmy Carter
» Determination » “You can do what you have to do, and sometimes you can do it even better than you think you can.”
» Human Rights » “America did not invent human rights. In a very real sense… human rights invented America.”
» Life and Living » “We should live our lives as though Christ were coming this afternoon.”
» Lust » “I’ve looked on a lot of women with lust. I’ve committed adultery in my heart many times.”
» Media » “We’ve uncovered some embarrassing ancestors in the not-too-distant past. Some horse thieves, and some people killed on Saturday nights. One of my relatives, unfortunately, was even in the newspaper business.”
» Multiculturalism » “We become not a melting pot but a beautiful mosaic. Different people, different beliefs, different yearnings, different hopes, different dreams.”
» Nations » “A strong nation, like a strong person, can afford to be gentle, firm, thoughtful, and restrained. It can afford to extend a helping hand to others. It’s a weak nation, like a weak person, that must behave with bluster and boasting and rashness and other signs of insecurity.”
