"The Drum Major Instinct". Sermon at Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, Georgia, kinginstitute.stanford.edu. February 4, 1968.

I said to my children, 'I'm going to work and do everything that I can do to see that you get a good education. I don't ever want you to forget that there are millions of God's children who will not and cannot get a good education, and I don't want you feeling that you are better than they are. For you will never be what you ought to be until they are what they ought to be.
