President Jimmy Carter, Nobel Peace Prize Laureate

If we believe that we are all connected in some way, and that each of our choices and actions can have meaning and impact - not only on ourselves, but on those around us, and even those we have never met - we CAN make a difference. We can transform the world, one life at a time.
