Reverend King's words still resonate with reason decades later; they still inspire new generations of folks to action.
~~~~~~~~~~ Words to Live By ~~~~~~~~~~~~
"The time is always right to do what is right."
"A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual doom."
"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 c an never become a reality... I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word."

God bless you, Reverend King. I am glad you lived, even for such a short time during my lifetime. I wish
your journey could have lasted much longer. I wish you were alive today to
guide our nation and our people. We need you and your wisdom, especially your thoughts on war.

America's legendary political leader, Martin Luther King Jr. was a man of great strength and wisdom. All his life, he espoused the principles of equality and peace. Martin Luther King won the Nobel peace prize for following non-violent practices to eradicate racial discrimination.
Hero, iconic person. I agree with you, wish he lived in our crazy world. People need persons like King for the better future.
RIP
