Quote of the Day (Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., With a Global Social Vision)
“I have the audacity to believe that peoples
everywhere can have three meals a day for their bodies, education and culture
for their minds, and dignity, equality and freedom for their spirits. I believe
that what self-centered men have torn down men other-centered can build up.”— Dr.
Martin Luther King Jr. (1929-1968), Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech, delivered in Oslo, Norway, on Dec. 10, 1964
I took this photograph of the statue at the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial while down in Washington, D.C., in November 2013. The first half of this quote is on one of the walls behind it.
I'm a librarian (no, NOT a "cybrarian" or "information scientist" or any of the other trendy terms the profession has come up with), as well as a freelance writer/researcher; my political leanings are contrarian, much to the dismay of friends on the left and right, and so I will give anyone looking for my vote exactly what they deserve -- the back of my hand
