    Because today is the King holiday, I wanted to post my favorite quote. I admit this has been frequently used, but it still retains its currency.
    "Darkness cannot drive out darkness. Only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate. Only love can do that."

    One of my favorites Lou. Another classic.

    I have a dream ... deeply rooted in the American dream ... that my four little children will one day not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character ... that little black boys and little black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and little white girls and walk together as sisters and brothers.
