Carter

Famous quotes containing the word carter:

    I’m a Sunday School teacher, and I’ve always known that the structure of law is founded on the Christian ethic that you shall love the Lord your God and your neighbor as yourself—a very high and perfect standard. We all know the fallibility of man, and the contentions in society, as described by Reinhold Niebuhr and many others, don’t permit us to achieve perfection.
    —Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)

    I never saw a fatter man; he’d have given my mother a stone or two and not felt the loss. Round as the “o” in rotund.
    —Angela Carter (1940–1992)

    There is an enormous chasm between the relatively rich and powerful people who make decisions in government, business, and finance and our poorer neighbors who must depend on these decisions to alleviate the problems caused by their lack of power and influence.
    —Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
