Famous quotes containing the word advantages:

    Leontine Young (20th century)

    The respect for human rights is one of the most significant advantages of a free and democratic nation in the peaceful struggle for influence, and we should use this good weapon as effectively as possible.
    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)

    But there are advantages to being elected President. The day after I was elected, I had my high school grades classified Top Secret.
    Ronald Reagan (b. 1911)
