"I HAVE A DREAM ..." (IN MEMORY)

"I am not interested in power for power's sake,
but I'm interested in power that is moral,
that is right and that is good."
~ Martin Luther King, Jr.

the day we become silent
about things that matter."

"Whatever your life's work is, do it well.
A man should do his job so well
that the living, the dead, and the unborn
could do it no better."

I wonder how different the world might have been had he and Robert Kennedy lived? Thank you for posting these two wonderful quotes. Gail

Joey, all day on one of the radio stations I listen to they have been playing snipets of some of his speeches. I was awe struck many times at his wisdon and humanity. Thank you for this tribute.

Always most thoughtful, dear Bren. I'm honored to have you as a dear friend. I'm on my way over ...

As I know you are, dear Beckie, I'm proud to live in this beautiful Country, remembering those who have walked a long, hard road, leaving huge footprints.

Thank you, dear Frances ... Indeed we are living in historic times; still young with much to learn.
