I've had the honor (although occasionally dubious) of meeting a lot of famous people.

Jimmy Carter is on an intellectual level that would shame and frighten some people. That dude is SHARP and INTELLIGENT.

I've got a framed picture of him, his son, me, and my daughter hanging in my office. I keep it there as a reminder to be humble, because I will never, ever be Jimmy Carter.
