“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.” WorldWantI CanCoursesNationsExampleKingsWeaponsLifetimeArguingDrsAssessmentSmileyQuintessential Author:Tavis Smiley
“I always make it a rule to let the other fellow fire first. If a man wants to fight, I argue the question with him and try to show him how foolish it would be. If he can't be dissuaded, why then the fun begins but I always let him have first crack. Then when I fire, you see, I have the verdict of self-defence on my side. I know that he is pretty certain in his hurry, to miss. I never do.” IfsKnowsMenWantTryingFirstsSelfShowsWould BeCertainFightingFunSidesFireMissingFellowsArguingFoolishCracksDefenceVerdictSelf Defence Author:Ben Thompson
