• My personal assessment is that Dr. King is the greatest American we have ever produced. I can argue for Lincoln, I can argue for FDR, but for my money, King is the greatest American we have ever produced. His only weapon was love.

So that for me, King is the quintessential example of everything that I could ever want to be in my lifetime.
