Martin Luther King, Jr.

"I Have a Dream"

delivered 28 August 1963, at the Lincoln Memorial, Washington D.C

'Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood. Now is the time to make justice a reality for all of God's children.'

'The marvelous new militancy which has engulfed the Negro community must not lead us to a distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers, as evidenced by their presence here today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny. And they have come to realize that their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom.

We cannot walk alone.

And as we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall always march ahead.

We cannot turn back.'

'Let us not wallow in the valley of despair, I say to you today, my friends.

And so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal."'

i pray all will be treated equal today...

Martin Luther King, Jr
he made such a impression on me

"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
Martin Luther King, Jr. "

"I look to a day when people will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.
Martin Luther King, Jr. "

"Peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek, but a means by which we arrive at that goal.
Martin Luther King, Jr. "

"That old law about 'an eye for an eye' leaves everybody blind. The time is always right to do the right thing.
Martin Luther King, Jr. "

i pray all will be treated equal today...
i pray its every day.............

he said at one point
" I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality"

love peace and fairness and kindness he stood for. FOr everyone.
Not just his own.
He was a amazing person . His words will last a life time.
He took hardship from everyone and never wavered on what he believed.
He stood for truth for all......
and never had a problem saying so. with love in his heart..
WHat a light he still is.......................
