Legacy of Martin Luther King

"Cowardice asks the question: is it safe?

Expediency asks the question: is it political?

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 political, nor popular - but one must take it simply because it is right."

--Dr. Martin L. King (Civil-Rights Leader, 1929-1968)
