"A voice out of Bethlehem two thousand years ago said that all men are equal. It said right would triumph.
"Jesus of Nazareth wrote no books; he owned no property to endow him with influence. He had no friends in the courts of the powerful.
"But he changed the course of mankind with only the poor and the despised."
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. (1929 - 1968)
