Paine Precepts 

Quotes by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.


  • Life's most persistent and urgent question is, "What are you doing for others?"
  • If I cannot do great things, I can do small things in a great way.
  • Not everybody can be famous but everybody can be great because greatness is determined by service.
  • Forgiveness is not an occasional act; it is a constant attitude.
