QUOTES

Ability may get you to the top, but it takes character to keep you there.

Let us come together before we're annihilated.

Life has meaning only in the struggle. Triumph or defeat is in the hands of the Gods. So let us celebrate the struggle!

You can't base your life on other people's expectations.

We all have ability. The difference is how we use it.

And we all know everything
That he stood for time will bring
For in peace our hearts will sing
Thanks to Martin Luther King

Why has there never been a holiday
Where peace is celebrated all throughout the world

We know the key to unify all people
Is in the dream that you had so long ago
That lives in all of the hearts of people
That believe in unity
We'll make the dream become a reality
I know we will
Because our hearts tell us so
