...that a woman's place is with her husband, and that she should keep quiet and cover her head in church. I just can't go along with him on that." Carter also has read deeply from the works of religious thinkers such as Reinhold Niebuhr, Karl Earth, Paul Tillich and Soren Kierkegaard and quotes from them. In particular, he is fond of this sentence from Niebuhr: "The sad duty of politics is to establish justice in a sinful world...
