Martin Luther King, Jr. Quotes While his “I Have a Dream” speech is the most well- known piece of his writing, Martin Luther King, Jr. was the author of multiple books, include “Stride Toward Freedom: The Montgomery Story,” “Why We Can’t Wait,” “Strength to Love,” “Where Do We Go From Here: Chaos or Community?” and the posthumously published “Trumpet of Conscience” with a foreword by Coretta Scott King. Here are some of the most famous Martin Luther King, Jr. quotes: “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.” “The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.” “Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed.” “The time is always right to do what is right.” "True peace is not merely the absence of tension; it is the presence of justice." “Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.” “Free at last, Free at last, Thank God almighty we are free at last.” “Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase.” “In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.” "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." “I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.” “Be a bush if you can't be a tree. If you can't be a highway, just be a trail. If you can't be a sun, be a star. For it isn't by size that you win or fail. Be the best of whatever you are.” “Life's most persistent and urgent question is, 'What are you doing for others?’” Photo Galleries Martin Luther King Jr. Kennedys Paying Respects To King Family Martin Luther King During The March On Washington Martin Luther King Giving Dream Speech 15 Gallery 15 Images An Intimate View of MLK Through the Lens of a Friend MLK-Flip-Schulke-Getty-1077329444 15 Gallery 15 Images America in Mourning After MLK's Shocking Assassination MLK_mourning_funeral_GettyImages-517721614 11 Gallery 11 Images Citation Information Article Title Martin Luther King, Jr. Author History.com Editors Website Name HISTORY URL https://www.history.com/topics/black-history/ martin-luther-king-jr Access Date December 20 , 2019 Publisher A&E Television Networks Last Updated September 4, 2019 Original Published Date November 9, 2009 By History.com Editors FACT CHECK: We strive for accuracy and fairness.

  • THE HISTORY of VETERANS DAY - Courtesy of US Department of Veterans’ Affairs
    NOVEMBER 2014 Published by Greene County Department of Human Services since 1976 THE HISTORY OF VETERANS DAY - Courtesy of US Department of Veterans’ Affairs World War I – known at the time as “The Great War” - officially ended when the Treaty of Versailles was signed on June 28, 1919, in the Palace of Versailles outside the town of Versailles, France. However, fighting ceased seven months earlier when an armistice, or temporary cessation of hostilities, between the Allied nations and Germany went into effect on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month. For that reason, November 11, 1918, is generally regarded as the end of “the war to end all wars.” Soldiers of the 353rd Infantry near a church at Stenay, Meuse in France, wait for the end of hostilities. This photo was taken at 10:58 a.m., on No- vember 11, 1918, two minutes before the armistice ending World War I went into effect In November 1919, President Wilson proclaimed November 11 as the first commemoration of Armistice Day with the following words: "To us in America, the reflections of Armistice Day will be filled with solemn pride in the heroism of those who died in the country’s service and with gratitude for the victory, both because of the thing from which it has freed us and be- cause of the opportunity it has given America to show her sympathy with peace and justice in the councils of the nations…" The original concept for the celebration was for a day observed with parades, public meetings and a brief suspension of business beginning at 11:00 a.m.
