"The function of education is to teach one to think intensively, and to think critically. But education which stops with efficiency may prove the greatest menace to society. The most dangerous criminal may be gifted with reason, but no morals. We must remember that intelligence is not enough. Intelligence plus character; that is the goal of true education." Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. 0003000/03424_0010000979.jpg

"We will have to repent in this generation not merely for the hateful words and actions of the bad people but the appalling silence of the good people." Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. 0003000/03424_0010000989.jpg

"Our hope for creative living lies in our ability to reestablish the moral ends of our lives in personal character and social justice." Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. 0003000/03424_0010000999.jpg
