Civil rights activist Martin Luther King was born January 15, 1929 and assassinated April 4, 1968. Here are some things he said or wrote worthy of remembering:”Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase.”ìBe a bush if you can’t be a tree. If you can’t be a highway, just be a trail. If you can’t be a sun, be a star. For it isn’t by size that you win or fail. Be the best of whatever you are.î”The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.””We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope.î
