Jimmy Carter actually said...

"Your work on behalf of children, refugees, the poor and the sick has been a great inspiration for many years to those of us who cherish and espouse human rights."

"The time has passed when the Federal Government can afford to give second-level, part-time attention to its responsibilities in American education."

"I hope that everyone will know—who's interested in education—this is the Secretary of Education."

"An educated citizenry is essential to the survival of a democratic form of government."
