DeleteI've come across the Maya Angelou and MLK quotes before and love them as well. The Haile Selassi quote makes me think of one by Jennifer Donnelly from Revolution: “One expects decent people to stand up for the good of all. Decent people shut their doors and hide behind them as decent people do. Massacres could never happen if it weren't for decent people.”
ReplyDeleteI love that. I didn't know she said that! Thanks Jen :)
