What quote by President Carter was famous?

Answer 1

I'm not sure which one in particular that you're looking for, but some of my favorite quotes of President Carter are:

"America did not invent human rights. In a very real sense human rights invented America."

"It is difficult for the common good to prevail against the intense concentration of those who have a special interest, especially if the decisions are made behind locked doors."

" War may sometimes be a necessary evil. But no matter how necessary, it is always an evil, never a good. We will not learn how to live together in peace by killing each other's children."

"You can do what you have to do, and sometimes you can do it even better than you think you can."

"If you fear making anyone mad, then you ultimately probe for the lowest common denominator of human achievement."
