More quotes by Jimmy Carter
There should be an honest attempt at the reconciliation of differences before resorting to combat.
Jimmy Carter
War may sometimes be a necessary evil. But no matter how necessary, it is always an evil, never a good. We will not learn how to live together in peace by killing each other's children.
Jimmy Carter
But love must be aggressively translated into simple justice.
Jimmy Carter
Go out on a limb. That's where the fruit is.
Jimmy Carter

Last night when I was commenting on the FBI and the CIA, the sound went off for 27 minutes. I should have known better.

There has never been any evidence that the death penalty reduces capital crimes or that crimes increased when executions stopped. Tragic mistakes are prevalent...It is clear that there are overwhelming ethical, financial, and religious reasons to abolish the death penalty.
Jimmy Carter
The heart and mind of every Muslim is affected by whether or not the Israel-Palestine issue is dealt with fairly.

Jimmy Carter
Always tell the truth, and take an interest in serving the people around you as much as possible.
Jimmy Carter
Governance should be designed as an equalizer. Democrats are more inclined towards working families and those who are struggling for a better life.
Jimmy Carter
I am confident that when the facts and policies have been examined, when the record of performances have been reviewed, Barack Obama and Joe Biden will once again be elected to lead our beloved country to a better future.
Jimmy Carter
In many courts, plea bargaining serves the convenience of the judge and the lawyers, not the ends of justice, because the courts simply lack the time to give everyone a fair trial.
Jimmy Carter
At the Carter Center we work with victims of oppression, and we give support to human rights heroes.
Jimmy Carter
A nation's domestic and foreign policies and actions should be derived from the same standards of ethics, honesty and morality which are characteristic of the individual citizens of the nation.
Jimmy Carter
Failure is a reality we all fail at times, and it's painful when we do. But it's better to fail while striving for something wonderful, challenging, adventurous, and uncertain than to say, I don't want to try because I may not succeed completely.
Jimmy Carter
I officially designated every US ambassador on earth to be my personal human rights representative, and to have the embassy be a haven for people who suffered from abuse by their own government.
Jimmy Carter
Always I'm working on some of book. That's the way I make a living.
Jimmy Carter
This intolerable dependence on foreign oil threatens our economic independence and the very security of our nation. The energy crisis is real. It is worldwide. It is a clear and present danger to our nation. These are facts and we simply must face them.
Jimmy Carter
As a Christian, a trained engineer and scientist, and a professor at Emory University, I am embarrassed by Superintendent Kathy Cox's attempt to censor and distort the education of Georgia's students.... There is no need to teach that stars can fall out of the sky and land on a flat Earth in order to defend our religious faith.
Jimmy Carter
