The meek man

The meek man is not a human mouse afflicted with a sense of his own inferiority. Rather, he may be, in his moral life as bold as a lion and as strong as Samson; but he has stopped being fooled about himself.

Brüder

We have flown the air like birds and swum the sea like fishes, but have yet to learn the simple act of walking the earth like brothers.

Wir haben den Luftraum wie Vögel beflogen und das Meer wie Fische beschwommen, aber müssen noch die einfache Handlung lernen die Erde wie Brüder zu betreten.

― Martin Luther King
