see the stars ~

....

“Everybody can be great...because anybody can serve. You don't have to have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.”

“People fail to get along because they fear each other; they fear each other because they don't know each other; they don't know each other because they have not communicated with each other.”

“No person has the right to rain on your dreams.”

“Only in the darkness can you see the stars.”

dr. martin luther king jr.

Love this post..and it is so true..so very true. I have a masters degree..it didn't make me rich in fact it put me in debt, it did not change my artistic abilities it only consumed time I could have spent making master pieces. Further, the part about fear and the lack of communication among people in the human race couldn't be more true. He was profound indeed..

Hello! I found your blog through Amanda's today. What a source of inspiration. Your space is beautiful. The quotes you posted are so powerful. I've enjoyed all the spirituals and gospel music playing on the airwaves today. Profound stuff - this duty of being human.

Love each and every quote, but my favorite and one I didn't know came from dr. martin luther king jr. is that last one "Only in the darkness can you see the stars." The image of that quote is so special.

I had to share my favorite quote from Dr. King!

"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."
