1929 – 1968
Baptist Minister and Civil Rights Leader ________________
“Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the
whole staircase.”
“I look to a day when people will not be judged by the color
of their skin, but by the content of their character.”
“I just want to do God’s will. And he’s allowed me to go to
the mountain. And I’ve looked over, and I’ve seen the promised land! I may not
get there with you, but I want you to know tonight that we as a people will get
to the promised land.”
“If a man hasn’t discovered something that he will die for,
he isn’t fit to live.”
“A genuine leader is not a searcher for consensus but a
molder of consensus.”
“Almost always, the creative dedicated minority has made the
world better.”
“Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you
doing for others?'”
“Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into
friend.”
“Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things
that matter.”
“Our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power. We have
guided missiles and misguided men.”
“Science investigates religion interprets. Science gives man
knowledge which is power; religion gives man wisdom which is control.”
“We must learn to live together as brothers or perish
together as fools.”
“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.”

“So happy to know I can rely on you to tell me what's going on. We had to leave XXX because they would never tell us why we weren't getting our media and couldn't verify that there was not an issue with the process. They had a production issue and just didn't want to tell us. Since we couldn't trust them anymore, we came to you! I can honestly say I'm happier with Hardy! :) “
