A Touch Of Wisdom, 7/13/16

"Cowardice asks the question - is it safe?
Expediency asks the question - is it politic?
Vanity 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 one must take it BECAUSE it is right."

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. (1929 - 1968) (Preeminent Civil Rights Activist)

Martin Luther King, Jr. was an American Baptist minister, activist, humanitarian, and leader in the African-American Civil Rights Movement. Wikipedia (To learn more, please click on this Wikipedia link)
