Jimmy Carter actually said...

"Even as we mourn his death, we celebrate because such a man as Hubert Humphrey was among us."

"At critical times in our history, the United States has been blessed by great people who, just by being themselves, give us a vision of what we are at our best and of what we might become."

"Hubert Humphrey was such a man."

"Despite campaign disagreements and my own harsh words spoken under pressure and in haste, it was not his nature to forget how to love or to forgive."
