More quotes by Jimmy Carter
When your troops go to war, the prime minister or the president change overnight from an administrator, dealing with taxation and welfare and health and deteriorating roads, into the commander-in-chief. And it's just become almost unpatriotic to describe Bush's fallacious and ill-advised and mistaken and sometimes misleading actions.
Jimmy Carter
You have given me a great responsibility: to stay close to you, to be worthy of you and to exemplify what you are.
Jimmy Carter
If one of our fellow citizens can be executed with so much doubt surrounding his guilt, then the death penalty system in our country is unjust and outdated.
Jimmy Carter
Billy Graham is one of my great lifetime heroes. I think he epitomizes the essence of what a Christian leader should be. I have participated in some of his crusades a couple of times in Atlanta. I've seen the profound impact he's had on me personally, and on other people who were not Christians and accepted Christ as Savior.
Jimmy Carter
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.
Jimmy Carter
Whatever starts in California unfortunately has an inclination to spread.
Jimmy Carter
The fact is that we would have had comprehensive health care now had it not been for Ted Kennedy's deliberately blocking the legislation that I proposed in 1978 or '79.
Jimmy Carter
I can't really criticize the Tea Party people, because I came into the White House pretty much on the same basis that they have become popular. That is dissatisfaction with the way things are going in Washington and disillusionment and disencouragement about the government.
Jimmy Carter
I don't think the Tea Party people are racist, except maybe a tiny portion of them. But there has been a deliberate effort - again, referring to Fox Broadcasting - to inject the race issue into it. They have actually called Obama a racist on television.
Jimmy Carter
Aggression unopposed becomes a contagious disease.
Jimmy Carter
I have a very personal relationship with Jesus Christ. It doesn't depend on the fact that he can walk on water.
Jimmy Carter
Each of us must rededicate ourselves to serving the common good. We are a community. Our individual Fates are linked our futures intertwined and if we act in that knowledge and in that spirit together, as the Bible says: We can move mountains.
Jimmy Carter
The oil lobby, perhaps the most powerful lobby on earth, is almost matched by hospital owners and doctors.
Jimmy Carter
I believe that the boycott that we have against Cuba is counterproductive, and it also makes the twelve million or so Cuban people suffer unnecessarily just because of a foolish policy of the United States.
Jimmy Carter
If I should ever decide in the future to discuss my deep Christian beliefs and condemnation and sinfulness, I would use another forum besides Playboy.
Jimmy Carter
We must make it clear that a platform of 'I hate gay men and women' is not a way to become president of the United States.
Jimmy Carter
The United States...has a warm and a unique relationship of friendship with Israel that is morally right. It is compatible with our deepest religious convictions, and it is right in terms of America's own strategic interests. We are committed to Israel's security, prosperity, and future as a land that has so much to offer the world.
Jimmy Carter
No matter where you go in the world in any country in Africa or Latin America and other place, you will find that China is very deeply involved in the affairs of that country.
Jimmy Carter
Go out on a limb. That's where the fruit is.
Jimmy Carter
On Saint Paul, he's probably one of the best theologians of all time, but I don't believe that some of his teachings are appropriate today.
