You have to have confidence in your ability, and then be tough enough to follow through.

You must accept that you might fail; then, if you do your best and still don't win, at least you can be satisfied that you've tried. If you don't accept failure as a possibility, you don't set high goals, you don't branch out, you don't try - you don't take the risk.

From Rosalynn Carter

A leader takes people where they want to go. A great leader takes people where they don't necessarily want to go, but ought to be.

From Rosalynn Carter

There is nothing more important than a good, safe, secure home.

From Rosalynn Carter

If you look at suicides, most of them are connected to depression. And the mental health system just fails them. It's so sad. We know what to do. We just don't do it.

From Rosalynn Carter

One day, I made a remark that I might work with people with mental illness, and somebody in the press heard it, and it was in the paper. And the more I thought about it and found out about it, the more I thought it was just a terrible situation with no attention. And I've been working on it ever since.

From Rosalynn Carter

Do what you can to show you care about other people, and you will make our world a better place.

From Rosalynn Carter

If you don't accept failure as a possibility, you don't set high goals, you don't branch out, you don't try - you don't take the risk.

From Rosalynn Carter

Early diagnosis is so important because the earlier a mental illness can be detected, diagnosed and treatment can begin, the better off that person can be for the rest of his or her life.

From Rosalynn Carter

San Francisco is one of my favorite cities in the world.
