mlk day quotes by MARTIN LUTHER KING-1433004947
[W]e are the heirs of a past of rope, fire, and murder. I for one am not ashamed of this past. My shame is for those who became so inhuman that they could inflict this torture upon us.
mlk day quotes by MARTIN LUTHER KING-1433003606
A law is unjust if it is inflicted on a minority that, as a result of being denied the right to vote, had no part in enacting or devising the law. Who can say that the legislature of Alabama which set up the state's segregation laws was democratically elected?

flag day quotes by WOODROW WILSON-1432920179
The flag of the United States has not been created by rhetorical sentences in declarations of independence and in bills of rights. It has been created by the experience of a great people, and nothing is written upon it that has not been written by their life. It is the embodiment, not of a sentiment, but of a history.
flag day quotes by FRANKLIN KNIGHT LANE-1432918555
I am whatever you make me, nothing more. I am your belief in yourself, your dream of what a people may become.... I am the clutch of an idea, and the reasoned purpose of resolution. I am no more than you believe me to be and I am all that you believe I can be. I am whatever you make me, nothing more.

Not only must we be good, but we must also be good for something.
easter quotes by ROBERT SOUTH-1432833624
God expects from men something more than at such times, and that it were much to be wished for the credit of their religion as well as the satisfaction of their conscience that their Easter devotions would in some measure come up to their Easter dress.
easter quotes by JOSEPH ADDISON-1432826071

earth day quotes by JOHN MUIR-1432824413

columbus day quotes by JOHN WATERS-1432788370

christmas quotes by DAVE BARRY-1432787021
Once again we find ourselves enmeshed in the Holiday Season, that very special time of year when we join with our loved ones in sharing centuries-old traditions such as trying to find a parking space at the mall. We traditionally do this in my family by driving around the parking lot until we see a shopper emerge from the mall, then we follow her, in very much the same spirit as the Three Wise Men, who 2,000 years ago followed a star, week after week, until it led them to a parking space.

back to school quotes by BILL DODDS-1432749632
