More From Jimmy Carter
- "There’s no doubt that usually a president’s public image is enhanced by going to war. That never did appeal to me."
- "I think all Americans believe in human rights. And health is an often overlooked aspect of basic human rights. And it’s one that’s easily corrected. The reason I say that is that many of the diseases that we treat around the world, I knew when I was a child. My mother was a registered nurse. And they no longer exist in our country."
- "The best way to enhance freedom in other lands is to demonstrate here that our democratic system is worthy of emulation."
More In Faith
- "I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active – not more happy – nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago."― Edgar Allan Poe
- "Mr. Speaker, I am deeply concerned that many regions of this world are suffering from the effects of armed conflicts with religious aspects. I believe that the differences of faith are not the real reason for these conflicts."― Alcee Hastings
- "I think that my preaching style and many of my ideas and ideals about faith are based in both Pentecostal and Baptist background."― T. D. Jakes
