Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day 2023!!

Martin Luther King Jr.’s words were spoken with hope that the future for African Americans would be brighter and that they would finally be given the equality they deserved.

Here are some great quotes of his to remember:

"He who is devoid of the power to forgive is devoid of the power to love."

"There can be no deep disappointment where there is not deep love."

"We must develop and maintain the capacity to forgive. He who is devoid of the power to forgive is devoid of the power to love. There is some good in the worst of us and some evil in the best of us. When we discover this, we are less prone to hate our enemies."

“I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.”

"If you can’t fly then run, if you can’t run then walk, if you can’t walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward."

"Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or in the darkness of destructive selfishness."

"Those who are not looking for happiness are the most likely to find it, because those who are searching forget that the surest way to be happy is to seek happiness for others."

"We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope."

"The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character – that is the goal of true education."

"Rarely do we find men who willingly engage in hard, solid thinking. There is an almost universal quest for easy answers and half-baked solutions. Nothing pains some people more than having to think."

"An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity."

Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day!
