My Inspirations
“There comes a time when time itself is ready for a change.”
“I often wonder whether or not education is fulfilling its purpose. A great majority of the so-called education people do not think logically and scientifically. Even the press, the classroom, the platform, and the pulpit in many instances do not give us objective and unbiased truths. To save man from the morass of propaganda, in my opinion, is one of the chief aims of education. Education must enable one to sift and weigh evidence, to discern the true from the false, the real from the unreal, and the facts from fiction.”
“Struggle is a never-ending process. Freedom is never really won, you earn it and win it in every generation."
- Coretta Scott King
