In Memoriam
Love our enemies as ourselves
Let he who is without sin throw the first stone
Turn the other cheek
He who does wrong to the least of us
Does wrong to me
Crucified c. 33
With malice toward none and charity toward all
If slavery is not wrong, then nothing is wrong
Let us listen to our better angels
Shot—killed 1865
Heaven welcomes the decent of all faiths
God does not favor man above woman
All should be afforded the opportunity and
Means to rise above their caste
Shot—killed 1947
One should not be judged by the color of their
Skin, but by the content of their character
Only the power of love can conquer hate
I may not get there with you, but I have
Been to the mountain, I have seen
the promised land
Shot—killed 1968
