Martin Luther King, Jr. Quotes:

Ocupation: Civil rights activist

Life: January 15, 1929 - April 4, 1968

Birthday: January 15

Death: April 4

Somehow this madness must cease. We must stop now. I speak as a child of God and brother to the suffering poor of Vietnam. I speak for those whose land is being laid waste, whose homes are being destroyed, whose culture is being subverted. I speak for the poor in America who are paying the double price of smashed hopes at home and death and corruption in Vietnam. I speak as a citizen of the world, for the world as it stands aghast at the path we have taken. I speak as an American to the leaders of my own nation. The great initiative in this war is ours. The initiative to stop it must be ours.

- Martin Luther King, Jr.
