My favorite MLK quote...

What's your favorite?

"We must rapidly begin the shift from a thing oriented society to a person oriented society. When machines and computers, profit motives and property rights are considered more important than people, the giant triplets of racism, militarism, and economic exploitation are incapable of being conquered. A nation can flounder as readily in face of moral and spiritual bankruptcy as it can through financial bankruptcy." -Martin Luther King Jr., 1967

I submit to you that if a many hasn't discovered something he will die for, he isn't fit to live. - Martin Luther King, Jr., June 23, 1963

3. Here is my favorite MLK quote
"On some positions, cowardice asks the question, is it expedient? And then expedience comes along and asks the question, is it politic? Vanity asks the question, is it popular? Conscience asks the question, is it right? There comes a time when one must take the position that is neither safe nor politic nor popular, but he must do it because conscience tells him it is right." - Martin Luther King, Jr.
