What you and i need to do is learn to forget our differences. when we come together, we don't come together as baptists or methodists. you don't catch hell 'cause you're a baptist, and you don't catch hell 'cause you're a methodist... you don't catch hell because you're a democrat or a republican. you don't catch hell because you're a mason or an elk. and you sure don't catch hell 'cause you're an american; 'cause if you was an american, you wouldn't catch no hell. you catch hell 'cause you're a black man. you catch hell, all of us catch hell, for the same reason.

Exploration belongs to the renaissance, travel to the bourgeois age, tourism to our proletarian moment.the explorer seeks theundiscovered, the traveler that which has been discovered by the mind working in history,the tourist that which has been discovered by entrepreneurship and prepared for him by the arts of mass publicity.if the explorer moves toward the risks of the formless and the unknown, the tourist moves toward the security of pure cliché. it is between these two poles that the traveler mediates.

Secrets have power. and that power diminishes when they are shared, so they are best kept and kept well. sharing secrets, real secrets, important ones, with even one other person, will change them. writing them down is worse, because who can tell how many eyes might see them inscribed on paper, no matter how careful you might be with it. so it's really best to keep your secrets when you have them, for their own good, as well as yours.

I have heard what poets write about women. they rhyme and rhapsodize and lie. i have watched sailors on the shore stare mutely at the slow-rolling swell of the sea. i have watched old soldiers with hearts like leather grow teary-eyed at their king's colors stretched against the wind. listen to me: these men know nothing of love. you will not find it in the words of poets or the longing eyes of sailors. if you want to know of love, look to a trouper's hands as he makes his music. a trouper knows.

My personal assessment is that dr. king is the greatest american we have ever produced. i can argue for lincoln, i can argue for fdr, but for my money, king is the greatest american we have ever produced. his only weapon was love. he transforms a nation, transforms the world with one weapon and that of course being again the weapon of love. so that for me, king is the quintessential example of everything that i could ever want to be in my lifetime.
