Martin Luther King Jr. Day

Last week I worked in an elderly African-American womens house fixing some plumbing and I found a Martin Luther King Jr. calendar of pictures and quotes....I wrote down my favorites.



"Everybody can be great, Because anybody can serve...You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love."

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

Also...I listened to the sermon he gave the day before he was shot in Memphis (I was in my truck on the way to work) and it was amazing. I got the chills...
