A few quotes from Martin Luther King, Jr. to ponder on this holiday:
"In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends."
"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."
from Strength to Love, 1963
"Hatred paralyzes life; love releases it. Hatred confuses life; love harmonizes it. Hatred darkens life; love illuminates it."
Let us stand up and let our love be the voice of others who don't have a voice, let our standing bear witness to what is just and let us be at once the rock of foundation and the light for the world.
