More quotes by Jimmy Carter
When I speak at my local church, which I try to do 35 to 40 times a year, I try in every lesson to take the Old Testament text or New Testament text and apply them to what is happening to me or how that applies to the audience that I'm teaching in a modern, fast-changing, technological world. I use headlines, interfaith and that sort of thing.

We believe that the first time we're born, as children, it's human life given to us and when we accept Jesus as our Savior, it's a new life. That's what born again means.

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

One of the surprising things that Brezhnev said when we were in our talks, was - when I proposed that we make these changes in nuclear weaponry, he said, God will never forgive us if we don't succeed. And, you know, coming from the leader of an atheistic communist country, this surprised everyone.
Jimmy Carter
I think a good husband has to depend on having a good wife.
Jimmy Carter
During the 1960s, we used twice as much oil as during the 1950s. And in each of those decades, more oil was consumed than in all of mankind's previous history.
Jimmy Carter
At the Carter Center we work with victims of oppression, and we give support to human rights heroes.
Jimmy Carter
Ahmadinejad is just a buffoon, sort of a clown on the international scene who tries to be provocative so he can get his name in the paper and his face on television.
Jimmy Carter
My decision to register women confirms what is already obvious throughout our society-that women are now providing all types of skills in every profession. The military should be no exception.
Jimmy Carter
The first step in providing economic equality for women is to ensure a stable economy in which every person who wants to work can work.
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
In retrospect, I can see that President Brezhnev was quite proud of the limited agreement that he had concluded in Vladivostok and to have a new American president come in and say, That is not good enough - let's do much more, and do it quite rapidly, took him by surprise.
Jimmy Carter
Go out on a limb. That's where the fruit is.

Israel's continued control and colonization of Palestinian land have been the primary obstacles to a comprehensive peace agreement in the Holy Land.
Jimmy Carter
Government is a contrivance of human wisdom to provide for human wants. People have the right to expect that these wants will be provided for by this wisdom.
