gptkbp:famous_quote

Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.
The time is always right to do what is right.
I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.
Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase.
Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that.
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.
Life's most persistent and urgent question is, ' What are you doing for others?'
