Inspirational Quote

Index_card_top “If a man is called to be a streetsweeper, he should sweep streets even as Michelangelo painted, or Beethoven played music, or Shakespeare wrote poetry. He should sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, here lived a great streetsweeper who did his job well.”
 
Martin Luther King, Jr.  (1929-1968);
minister, civil rights activist
