Martin Luther King, Jr.
Had Dr. King lived, he would have been 78 years old today. He was, and remains even after his life, the moral prophet of our time. We’re still waiting for someone with his stature to emerge.
On this day of remembrance, some thoughts by King:

“Almost always, the creative dedicated minority has made the world better.”
“We may have all come on different ships, but we’re in the same boat now.”
