„На многих женщин я смотрел с вожделением. Я совершил множество прелюбодеяний в сердце своём.“

Вариант: На многих женщин я смотрел с вожделением. Я совершил множество прелюбодеяний в сердце своём.

„Этот космический аппарат «Вояджер» был создан Соединёнными Штатами Америки. Мы сообщество 240 миллионов человек среди более чем 4 миллиардов, которые населяют планету Земля. Мы, люди, всё ещё разделены на национальные государства, но эти государства быстро становятся единой глобальной цивилизацией.
Мы направляем это послание в космос. Оно, вероятно, выживет в течение миллиарда лет нашего будущего, когда наша цивилизация изменится и значительно изменит лик Земли...
Если какая-либо цивилизация перехватит «Вояджер» и сможет понять смысл этой записи — вот наше послание:
Это — подарок от маленького далёкого мира: наши звуки, наша наука, наши изображения, наша музыка, наши мысли и чувства.
Мы пытаемся выжить в наше время, так что мы можем жить и в вашем. Мы надеемся, настанет день, когда будут решены проблемы, перед которыми мы стоим сегодня, и мы присоединимся к сообществу галактических цивилизаций. Эти записи представляют наши надежды, нашу решимость и нашу добрую волю в этой Вселенной, огромной и внушающей благоговение.“

Джимми Картер: Цитаты на английском языке

“I have nothing against a community that is made up of people who are Polish, or who are Czechoslovakians, or who are French Canadians or who are blacks trying to maintain the ethnic purity of their neighborhoods. This is a natural inclination. … Government should not break up a neighborhood on a numerical basis. As soon as the Government does, the white folks flee.”

Widely criticized remarks intended as support of open-housing laws, but specifying opposition to government efforts to "inject black families into a white neighborhood just to create some sort of integration" (April 1976), quoted in "THE CAMPAIGN: Candidate Carter: I Apologize" in TIME Magazine (19 April 1976) http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,914056,00.html

“I have been in love with the Palestinian people for many years…”

Speech in West Bank, Palestine. June 13, 2009. [In West Bank, Carter speaks of his love for the Palestinians, Haaretz, Haaretz, http://www.haaretz.com/news/in-west-bank-carter-speaks-of-his-love-for-the-palestinians-1.277860]
Post-Presidency

“It violates the essence of what made America a great country in its political system. Now it’s just an oligarchy with unlimited political bribery being the essence of getting the nominations for president or being elected president. And the same thing applies to governors, and U. S. Senators and congress members. So, now we’ve just seen a subversion of our political system as a payoff to major contributors, who want and expect, and sometimes get, favors for themselves after the election is over. … At the present time the incumbents, Democrats and Republicans, look upon this unlimited money as a great benefit to themselves. Somebody that is already in Congress has a great deal more to sell, to an avid contributor.”

Statement on the Citizens United decision of the Supreme Court, in an interview with Thom Hartmann (28 July 2015) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hDsPWmioSHg; also quoted in Jimmy Carter: U.S. Is an 'Oligarchy With Unlimited Political Bribery'" in Rolling Stone (31 July 2015) http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/videos/jimmy-carter-u-s-is-an-oligarchy-with-unlimited-political-bribery-20150731, and in "Jimmy Carter Is Correct That the U.S. Is No Longer a Democracy" by Eric Zuesse, in Huffington Post (3 August 2015) http://www.huffingtonpost.com/eric-zuesse/jimmy-carter-is-correct-t_b_7922788.html.

Interview in Playboy magazine (1976), while a candidate for President.

“Iraq is an unjust war. I thought then, and I think now, that the invasion of Iraq was unnecessary and unjust. And I think the premises on which it was launched were false.”

Post-Presidency

“A party with a narrow vision, a party that is afraid of the future, a party whose leaders are inclined to shoot from the hip, a party that has never been willing to put its investment in human beings who are below them in economic and social status.”

Remarks on the Republican party, at a fundraiser in Hollywood, Florida, as quoted in "Carter Attacks Reagan Tax Cut, Seeks Debates," The Washington Post, (18 July 1980), Pg. A1; this has often become misquoted as "Republicans are men of narrow vision, who are afraid of the future." http://message.snopes.com/showthread.php?t=9752

“History teaches, perhaps, very few clear lessons. But surely one such lesson learned by the world at great cost is that aggression, unopposed, becomes a contagious disease.”

Speech on Afghanistan (4 January 1980) http://millercenter.org/president/carter/speeches/speech-3403
Presidency (1977–1981), 1978

“I guess my biggest failure was not getting reelected. [The loss taught me] not to ever let American hostages be held for 444 days in a foreign country without extracting them. I did the best I could, but I failed.”

Interview with Big Think, in reference to the 1980 presidential election, and the Iran hostage crisis, December 14, 2010.

Post-Presidency

“Within our country, ultimate decisions are made through democratic means, which tend to moderate radical or ill-advised proposals. Constrained and inspired by historic constitutional principles, our nation has endeavored for more than two hundred years to follow the now almost universal ideals of freedom, human rights, and justice for all.”

Post-Presidency, Nobel lecture (2002)
Контексте: The world has changed greatly since I left the White House. Now there is only one superpower, with unprecedented military and economic strength. The coming budget for American armaments will be greater than those of the next fifteen nations combined, and there are troops from the United States in many countries throughout the world. Our gross national economy exceeds that of the three countries that follow us, and our nation's voice most often prevails as decisions are made concerning trade, humanitarian assistance, and the allocation of global wealth. This dominant status is unlikely to change in our lifetimes.
Great American power and responsibility are not unprecedented, and have been used with restraint and great benefit in the past. We have not assumed that super strength guarantees super wisdom, and we have consistently reached out to the international community to ensure that our own power and influence are tempered by the best common judgment.
Within our country, ultimate decisions are made through democratic means, which tend to moderate radical or ill-advised proposals. Constrained and inspired by historic constitutional principles, our nation has endeavored for more than two hundred years to follow the now almost universal ideals of freedom, human rights, and justice for all.

“There is an inherent feeling among many in this country that an African-American should not be president.”

Speech at a town hall meeting held at his presidential center in Atlanta, Georgia. [Jimmy Carter says Joe Wilson's attack on Barack Obama was 'based on racism', The Daily Telegraph, The Daily Telegraph, September 16, 2009, http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/barackobama/6196028/Jimmy-Carter-says-Joe-Wilsons-attack-on-Barack-Obama-was-based-on-racism.html]
Post-Presidency

“Sometimes we try to justify this unsavory business on the cynical ground that by rationing out the means of violence we can somehow control the world’s violence. The fact is that we cannot have it both ways. Can we be both the world’s leading champion of peace and the world’s leading supplier of the weapons of war?”

"A Community of the Free" address at the The Foreign Policy Association NY, NY (23 June 1976); this is often paraphrased: We cannot be both the world’s leading champion of peace and the world’s leading supplier of the weapons of war.
