Jimmy Carter: “I am pleased to nominate Howard A. Rusk as a member of the National Council on the Handicapped.”

I fear for our democracy.

There's only one chance and one life to count for something. And my faith tells me, or my faith demands, that I use whatever I have whenever I can, to make a difference in people's lives.

Hospitals are just like prisons. They're easy to get in, but hard to get out. You need to help me get out of here so that I can go and serve the people in Tennessee.

All of us owe them our gratitude and respect.
