No person has the right to rain on your dreams. I have a dream that one day little black boys and girls will be holding hands with little white boys and girls. I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: – ‘We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.’ It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream. Now, I say to you today my friends, even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. On ChoiceĮvery man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or in the darkness of destructive selfishness.Īs my sufferings mounted I soon realized that there were two ways in which I could respond to my situation - either to react with bitterness or seek to transform the suffering into a creative force. On some positions, Cowardice asks the question, “Is it safe?” Expediency asks the question, “Is it politic?” And Vanity comes along and asks the question, “Is it popular?” But Conscience asks the question “Is it right?” And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but he must do it because Conscience tells him it is right.
I hate myself for loving you the spiritual machines plus#
Intelligence plus character - that is the goal of true education. 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. People fail to get along because they fear each other they fear each other because they don’t know each other they don’t know each other because they have not communicated with each other. We must learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools. True compassion is more than flinging a coin to a beggar it comes to see that an edifice which produces beggars needs restructuring. Society’s punishments are small compared to the wounds we inflict on our soul when we look the other way. Never, never be afraid to do what’s right, especially if the well-being of a person or animal is at stake. If you can’t fly then run, if you can’t run then walk, if you can’t walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward. Not only will we have to repent for the sins of bad people but we also will have to repent for the appalling silence of good people. In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.
Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.
The time is always right to do the right thing.
