Pastoral Resources

I get on the floor, and I can do things a woman a fifth my age can't do.

I have gone from being a 21-year-old with wide eyes to a 24-year-old woman. With success comes a lot of responsibility and power.

It took us 50 months in Germany, post World War II to go from the end of the war to a national election.

Show me the person you honor, for I know better by that the kind of person you are. For you show me what your idea of humanity is.

From protecting our natural resources to providing maritime security and national defense, the Coast Guard's duties are broad in scope, and the performance of those duties has never been more important.

The expression a woman wears on her face is far more important than the clothes she wears on her back.

When the first big paycheque with 'Dumb And Dumber' hit, I went: 'Gosh, I wonder if this will affect my performance. Will I do a take and think, was that worth $7 million?' But that never happened. If anything, it made me rebel against that thing when people who get rich start playing it safe.

Behind every great man is a woman rolling her eyes.

Even the handsomest men do not have the same momentary effect on the world as a truly beautiful woman does.

I know you've been married to the same woman for 69 years. That is marvelous. It must be very inexpensive.

Human rights is the soul of our foreign policy, because human rights is the very soul of our sense of nationhood.

At the Carter Center we work with victims of oppression, and we give support to human rights heroes.

Middle age is when a guy keeps turning off lights for economical rather than romantic reasons.
