Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day 2016
Martin Luther King, Jr. Day - a United States Federal Holiday - is celebrated on the third Monday of January each year. Watch a video of his famous I have a Dream speech.
Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.
- Martin Luther King, Jr.
Life's most urgent question is:
what are you doing for others?
- Martin Luther King, Jr.
Peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek,
but a means by which we arrive at that goal.
- Martin Luther King, Jr.
Darkness cannot drive out darkness;
only light can do that.
Hate cannot drive out hate;
only love can do that.
- Martin Luther King, Jr.
Never succumb to the temptation of bitterness.
- Martin Luther King, Jr.
What a cruel thing war is...
to fill our hearts with hatred instead of love for our neighbors.
- Robert E. Lee [Robert E. Lee's birthday is celebrated today in AL, AR and MS]
