Martin Luther King, Jr.

{A Hero of Mine}
Civil Disobedience Defined:
“An individual who breaks a law that conscience tells him is unjust, and who willingly accepts the penalty of imprisonment in order to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice, is in reality expressing the highest respect for the law.”
*
"Nonviolence Means
Avoiding Not Only External Physical Violence,
but also Internal Violence of Spirit.
You not only Refuse to Shoot a Man,
but You Refuse to Hate Him.”
*
"I Have Decided
to Stick with LOVE.
HATE is Too Great a Burden
to Bear.”
*
"I Have a Dream
that One Day, My Children will Live in a Nation,
Where They will Not Be Judged by
the Color of Their SKIN,
But by
the Content of Their CHARACTER.”
*
-Martin Luther King Jr.
[A Few of My Favorite Quotes]
His WISDOM and COURAGE Were STUNNING.

Hey nice blog you got going here,

I run a blog about politics, government, economics, and entertainment. Although my posts are generally serious, I try to introduce a little variety by discussing cigars, coffee, and wine!
