More quotes by Jimmy Carter
I think the only way that political system can be corrected is for the American people to see very vividly that it needs repair.

Jimmy Carter
In the life of the human spirit, words are action, much more so than many of us realize who live in countries where freedom of expression is taken for granted. The leaders of totalitarian nations understand this very well. The proof is that words are precisely the action for which dissidents in those countries are being persecuted.
