More quotes by Jimmy Carter
Always tell the truth, and take an interest in serving the people around you as much as possible.
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
Every act of energy conservation... is more than just common sense: I tell you it is an act of patriotism.
Jimmy Carter
There were two unpleasant surprises [about Washington]. One was the inertia of Congress, the length of time it takes to get a complicated piece of legislation through ... and the other was the irresponsibility of the press.
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
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
Jesus never mentions abortion. But I think that Jesus did care for the unborn child, I think that Jesus did care for people who were completely helpless, who depend on others for their life and livelihood. I just believe that this should be minimized if possible.
Jimmy Carter
We cannot speak of human rights in other countries unless we are going to do our utmost to protect the rights of our own people here at home.
Jimmy Carter
The blood of Abraham, God's father of the chosen, still flows in the veins of Arab, Jew, and Christian, and too much of it has been spilled in grasping for the inheritance of the revered patriarch in the Middle East. The spilled blood in the Holy Land still cries out to God--an anguished cry for peace.
Jimmy Carter
Even for the world's only superpower, the ends don't always justify the means.
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
We can't equate democracy with Christianity because the largest democracy on earth is India, which is primarily Hindu. The third largest democracy is Indonesia, which is Islamic. Democracy and freedom are not dependent on Christian beliefs.
Jimmy Carter
To be true to ourselves, we must be true to others.
Jimmy Carter
To me, Faith is not just a noun but also a verb
Jimmy Carter
Nearly all inmates are drawn from the ranks of the powerless and the poor. A child of privilege frequently receives the benefit of the doubt a child of poverty seldom does.
Jimmy Carter
It's very difficult for the American people to believe that our government, one of the richest on Earth, is also one of the stingiest on Earth.
Jimmy Carter
Thoughtful criticism and close scrutiny of all government officials by the press and the public are an important part of our democratic society.
Jimmy Carter
I'm 86, and too old to be President.
Jimmy Carter
My favourite president, and the one I admired most, was Harry Truman.
Jimmy Carter
Two problems of our country - energy and malaise.
Jimmy Carter
