“The choices we make about the lives we live determine the kinds of legacies we leave.”
― The Other Wes Moore: One Name, Two Fates
― The Other Wes Moore: One Name, Two Fates
“I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. That is why right temporarily defeated is stronger than evil triumphant.”
― Death of a King: The Real Story of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s Final Year
― Death of a King: The Real Story of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s Final Year
“I refuse to despair in this moment. I refuse to allow myself to fall into the dark chambers of pessimism, because I think in any social revolution the one thing that keeps it going is hope, and when hope dies somehow the revolution degenerates into a kind of nihilistic philosophy which says you must engage in disruption for disruption’s sake.… I believe that the forces of goodwill, white and black, in this country can work together to bring about a resolution.… We have the resources to do it.…”
