Today we celebrate the legacy of a man whose eloquence inspired humanity, and whose actions altered the course of history. His words continue to shape our lives … and our homes.
“Only in the darkness can you see the stars.”
“Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase.”
“It is cheerful to God when you rejoice or laugh from the bottom of your heart.”
“Almost always the creative, dedicated minority has made the world better.”
“I guess one of the great agonies of life is that we are constantly trying to finish that which is unfinishable.”
“Babies, we are told, are the latest news from heaven.”
“You cannot keep birds from flying over your head, but you can keep them from building a nest in your hair.”
“Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.”
“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.”
“Perhaps … the nation and the world are in dire need of creative extremists.”
“The major problem of life is learning how to handle the costly interruptions. The door that slams shut, the plan that got sidetracked, the marriage that failed. Or that lovely poem that didn’t get written because someone knocked on the door.”
“I say to you today, my friends, that in spite of the difficulties and frustrations of the moment, I still have a dream.”
