My Favorite Quote

Our lives begin to end, the day we become silent about things that matter.

--Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

I've had this quote posted on my desk for years, so I thought I might as well put it on the blog, since it is kinda the thing that keeps me going (politically at least). In these days of corruption, incompetence, and general dissatisfaction with government at every level and with both parties, it is easy for people to give up on the whole political system. However complacency just makes the situation worse, so if everyone followed Dr. King's advice and stood up for whatever it is that truly matters to you, we too could make the world a better place.
