"I was a drum major for justice, peace and righteousness"

Yes, if you want to say that I was a drum major, say that I was a drum major for justice. Say that I was a drum major for peace. I was a drum major for righteousness. And all of the other shallow things will not matter. I won't have any money to leave behind. I won't have the fine and luxurious things of life to leave behind. But I just want to leave a committed life behind. (Amen) And that's all I want to say.

Three of the 14 quotations inscribed along the memorial wall Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that. --from Strength to Love, a collection of Kings sermons published in 1963

Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly –from Kings letter from Birmingham jail, 1963 I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. This is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant. – from Kings Nobel Prize acceptance speech, Oslo, 1964
