It\u2019s the third Monday of January, and at first glance, it\u2019s just another Monday. Maybe it was Facebook, today\u2019s Google doodle, or the fact that the banks are closed that reminded you that today is Martin Luther King, Jr Day. Today is set aside to remember Martin Luther King, Jr the activist and leader of the African American Civil Rights Movement. King received the Nobel Peace Prize for combating racial inequality through nonviolence and the message he communicated in the 1960s still inspire today. Here are a few of my favorite quotes from Dr. King.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \u201cDarkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.\u201d<\/li>\n
  2. \u201cThe time is always right to do what is right.\u201d<\/li>\n
  3. \u201cLife\u2019s most persistent and urgent question is, \u2018What are you doing for others?\u2019 \u201c<\/li>\n
  4. \u201cI have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.\u201d<\/li>\n
  5. \u201cForgiveness is not an occasional act; it is a constant attitude.\u201d<\/li>\n
  6. \u00a0\u201cFaith is taking the first step even when you don\u2019t see the whole staircase.\u201d<\/li>\n
  7. \u00a0\u201cI have a dream that my four little 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.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Take a few minutes today to read the\u00a0entire manuscript<\/a>\u00a0from Dr. King\u2019s famous \u201cI have a dream\u201d speech, which he delivered on August 28, 1963 in front of the Lincoln Memorial during the organized March on Washington.<\/p>\n
