Martin Luther King Jr. Day<\/b><\/p>\n
I submit that 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.
\n— Martin Luther King Jr.<\/p>\n
The good neighbor looks beyond the external accidents and discerns those inner qualities that make all men human and, therefore, brothers.
\n— Martin Luther King Jr., ‘Strength to Love,’ 1963<\/p>\n
The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
\n— Martin Luther King, Jr. <\/p>\n
I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. That is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant.
\n— Martin Luther King Jr.,

“I believe that what self-centered men have torn down, men other-centered can build up. I still believe that one day mankind will bow before the altars of God and be crowned triumphant over war and bloodshed and non- violent redemptive goodwill proclaimed the rule of the land. And the Lion and the Lamb shall lie down together, and every man shall sit under his own vine and fig tree, and none shall be afraid. I believe that we shall overcome.”
