More quotes by Jimmy Carter
When I was in the White House, I was confronted with the challenge of the Cold War. Both the Soviet Union and I had 30,000 nuclear weapons that could destroy the entire earth and I had to maintain the peace.
Jimmy Carter
Always tell the truth, and take an interest in serving the people around you as much as possible.
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
Even for the world's only superpower, the ends don't always justify the means.
Jimmy Carter
I’m not in favor of the government mandating a prayer in school because our country was founded on the fact that no particular religious faith would have ascendance over or preferential treatment over any other.
Jimmy Carter
I think the Israelis are beginning to realize more that they are moving toward a one-state solution, which would be a catastrophe for Israel.
Jimmy Carter
Our American values are not luxuries but necessities, not the salt in our bread, but the bread itself. Our common vision of a free and just society is our greatest source of cohesion at home and strength abroad, greater than the bounty of our material blessings.
Jimmy Carter
The government ought to stay out of the prayer business.
Jimmy Carter
It is generally not known in the world that, in the years preceding 1916, there was a concerted effort made to eliminate all the Armenian people, probably one of the greatest tragedies that ever befell any group. And there weren't any Nuremberg trials.
Jimmy Carter
It was the darndest thing I've ever seen. It was big, it was very bright, it changed colors and it was about the size of the moon.. We watched it for ten minutes, but none of us could figure out what it was. One thing's for sure, I'll never make fun of people who say they've seen unidentified objects in the sky.
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
One of the most serious problems that our country has inherited an unwillingness to talk to anyone who disagrees with us or who won't accept, before a discussion, all the premises that we demand.
Jimmy Carter
We have a special relationship with Israel. It's absolutely crucial that no one in our country or around the world ever doubt that our number one committment in the Middle East is to protect the right of Israel to exist, to exist permanently, and to exist in peace. It's a special relationship.
Jimmy Carter
We know that a peaceful world cannot long exist, one-third rich and two-thirds hungry.
Jimmy Carter
George Bush asked me if there was anything he could do for me, and I said, Yes, you can help promote peace in Sudan after eight years of different policy. And he said, I'll do it. So to make a long story short, he did it, not necessarily because I requested it, but they were very successful.
Jimmy Carter
The world is safer without Saddam [Hussein]. Certainly the people of Iraq are better without Saddam.
Jimmy Carter
To me, Faith is not just a noun but also a verb
Jimmy Carter
We consider these settlements to be contrary to the Geneva Convention, that occupied territory should not be changed by establishment of permanent settlements by the occupying power.
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.
Jimmy Carter
One of my greatest pleasures is being on the farmland that's been in the family since 1833.
