Some Things to Think About
"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."
"He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it."
"In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends."
"Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity."
"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."
All Quotes by the late Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
