Quote of the Day – Martin Luther King Jr.

Quote of the Day… not actually daily, but whenever I encounter one I think worth sharing and there are not too many in sequence.  I like quotes as they frequently distill a piece of wisdom into a brief passage, or make other points very succinctly – such as the witticisms of Oscar Wilde.

“Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.” ~~ Martin Luther King Jr.

The quote reminds of something my black buddy who lives in Mississippi says from time to time about racists and racist’s attitudes.  He refers to the first as ignorant and the second as willful ignorance. They have never allowed themselves to meet a person of color as a fellow human being.  I will have to admit he is kinder than me, and he has been dealing with discrimination for nearly 80 years at this point.
