"I have a dream that my 4 children will one day live in a nation Where they will not be judged by the color of their skin But by the content of their character."
"Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter."
"The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy."
