Martin Luther King, Jr.
1929-1968
"Hatred paralyzes life;
love releases it.
Hatred confuses life;
love harmonizes it.
Hatred darkens life;
love illumines it."
"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."
"Darkness cannot drive out darkness;
only light can do that.
Hate cannot drive out hate;
only love can do that."
