Happy Martin Luther King Day!



Martin Luther King, Jr. Quotes:

We will have to repent in this generation not merely for the vitriolic words and actions of the bad people, but for the appalling silence of the good people.


Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.


Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.


I submit to you that if a man hasn't discovered something he will die for, he isn't fit to live.


Let no man pull you low enough to hate him.


The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character - that is the goal of true education.


Rarely do we find men who willingly engage in hard, solid thinking. There is an almost universal quest for easy answers and half-baked solutions. Nothing pains some people more than having to think.


War is a poor chisel to carve out tomorrow.


I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality... I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word.


Like an unchecked cancer, hate corrodes the personality and eats away its vital unity. Hate destroys a man's sense of values and his objectivity. It causes him to describe the beautiful as ugly and the ugly as beautiful, and to confuse the true with the false and the false with the true.


The time is always right to do what is right.


Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.


We must learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools.


Peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek, but a means by which we arrive at that goal.


Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.


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.

The most definitive video existing DOCUMENTING the FBI's conspiracy to kill MLK. As MLK went above and beyond issues of Civil Rights, the policy makers behind the secret curtain had to have him killed.
