Happy MLK, Jr. Day!

You do know we share the same birthday right? He would have been 80 this year! Anyways, just sending a shot out to Mr. Martin Luther King, Jr., nobel peace prize winner, civil rights activist, and Baptist Minister...

"He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it." -MLK

"Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter."

Great quotes and a great piece. I found the painting on-line. Wish I knew who the artist was.
