Jimmy Carter: “Your example strengthens my faith in our Nation and in the future of our Nation.”

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.

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.

Our great nation now teeters on the brink of a widening abyss. Without immediate action, we are at genuine risk of civil conflict and losing our precious democracy.

All of us must learn to waste less energy.
