Weird Georgia Quotes

“When Georgia's native son Jimmy Carter was elected President in 1976, the world marveled at his family. Mama, in her old age, left to serve as a missionary in India; wife, Rosalynn, told reporters about the family ghost; sister, Ruth, was a faith healer; brother, Billy, became the poster child for rednecks; and cousin Hugh, a state legislator, ran the world's largest worm farm. Jimmy himself had reported seeing a UFO, admitted lusting in his heart, and was attacked by a killer rabbit.

Georgians were puzzled by all the attention. Why would anybody think this family was weird?”
