Every Day Before Supper And Before We Went To Services On Sundays. My Grandmother Would Read The Bible To Me, And My Grandfather Would Pray. We Even Had Devotions Before Going To Pick Cotton In The Fields. Prayer And The Bible, Became A Part Of My Everyday Thoughts And Beliefs.

I Knew Someone Had To Take The First Step. So I Made Up My Mind Not To Move.

What Really Matters Is Not Whether We Have Problems, But How We Go Through Them. We Must Keep Going On To Make It Through Whatever We Are Facing.

I Will Always Work For Human Rights For All People.

I Am Leaving This Legacy To All Of You...to Bring Peace, Justice, Equality, Love And A Fulfillment Of What Our Lives Should Be. Without Vision, The People Will Perish, And Without Courage And Inspiration, Dreams Will Die - The Dream Of Freedom And Peace.
