Some of my favorite quotes from one of my favorite historical figures, Dr. Martin Luther King:
"A riot is the language of the unheard."
"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."
"Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase."
"History will have to record that the greatest tragedy of this period of social transition was not the strident clamor of the bad people, but the appalling silence of the good people."
"Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity."
"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."
"There can be no deep disappointment where there is not deep love."
"We must learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools."
"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character."
"I don't care if he has won three straight playoff games on the road, Eli Manning still sucks."
Naaahhhh he didn't really say that; just wanted to see if you actually went through and read all those quotes from a great man. Happy Martin Luther King Day.
