Martin Luther King, Jr.
Everybody can be great...because anybody can serve. You don't have to have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
We were not unmindful of the difficulties involved. So we decided to go through a process of self-purification.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Education without social action is a one-sided value because it has no true power potential.
Martin Luther King, Jr.

Martin Luther King, Jr.
What are you doing for others?
