Quote by Martin Luther

Every man must do two things alone; he must do his own believing and his own dying.

Every man must do two things alone; he must do his own belie

Summary

This quote, attributed to American philosopher Martin Luther King Jr., emphasizes the inherent individuality and personal nature of two profound aspects of life - belief and death. Believing refers to the act of forming personal convictions, values, and principles, highlighting the importance of independent thought and decision-making. Dying, on the other hand, signifies the ultimate journey each person embarks on alone, emphasizing the deeply personal nature of this inevitable experience. It serves as a reminder that these essential aspects of life cannot be shared or accomplished collectively, instead requiring individuals to confront them individually.

Man can will nothing unless he has first understood that he must count on no one but himself; that he is alone, abandoned on earth in the midst of his infinite responsibilities, without help, with no other aim than the one he sets himself, with no other destiny than the one he forges for himself on this earth.

Racism is when you have laws set up, systematically put in a way to keep people from advancing, to stop the advancement of a people. Black people have never had the power to enforce racism, and so this is something that white America is going to have to work out themselves. If they decide they want to stop it, curtail it, or to do the right thing... then it will be done, but not until then.
