Okay...off topic(sorry). After doing some research and dissection, it seems the 1st line of this quote:

{“I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy}. Is by 'Jessica Dovey', an English teacher in working in Japan. She came up with the 1st line and the rest (below) she attributed to MLK

"Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.”

Here is a link to the above info - apparantly the whole quote has become mixed and very popular ATM in the wake of Osama's death. I've since changed my signature because I love MLK's philosophy and this quote. I also replaced Jessica Dovey's sentence, although her's is great with my own.
