So here's the short of it, 
So on this day I'm celebrating the impact of Martin Luther King, jr. on our society.

And here's the long.

I'm going to do that by posting some of the quotes that are most meaningful to me.

• Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly.

• The gospel at its best deals with the whole man, not only his soul but his body, not only his spiritual well-being, but his material well being. Any religion that professes to be concerned about the souls of men and is not concerned about the slums that damn them, the economic conditions that strangle them and the social conditions that cripple them is a spiritually moribund religion awaiting burial.

• The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice.

• Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.

• History will have to record that the greatest tragedy of this period of social transition was not the strident clamor of the bad people, but the appalling silence of the good people.

• The time is always right to do the right thing.

• 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.
