Kindred,
“I look to a day when people will not be judged by the
color of their skin, but by the content of their character.
Intelligence plus character – that is the goal of true
education.
A lie cannot live.
Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.
Human progress is neither automatic nor inevitable…Every
step toward the goal of justice requires sacrifice, suffering, and struggle;
the tireless exertions and passionate concern of dedicated individuals.
We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose
infinite hope.
Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things
that matter.
The ultimate tragedy is not the oppression and cruelty
by the bad people but the silence over that by the good people.
The first question which the priest and the Levite
asked was: ‘If I stop to help this man, what will happen to me?’ But…the good Samaritan
reversed the question: ‘If I do not stop to help this man, what will happen to
him?’
The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands
in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge
and controversy.
Wars are poor chisels for carving out peaceful
tomorrows.
I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.”
Quotes by Martin Luther King Jr.
Happy Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day 😊
