“I have the audacity to believe that peoples everywhere can have three meals a day for their bodies, education and culture for their minds, and dignity, equality and freedom for their spirits. I believe that what self-centered men have torn down men other-centered can build up.” -Martin Luther King Jr.
Acceptance speech
Man, I needed this. This speech just about brought me to tears, but before that, peace washed over me. It was like, ah ha, there it is. That is what I’ve been looking for. I heard his words before I even realized it was his acceptance speech for the Nobel Peace Prize. I am just filled with so much gratitude for what he left behind for us. How perfectly timely it showed up. And how oddly it still works for today.
