King's response to our crisis can be put in one word: revolution. A revolution in our priorities a reevaluation of our values a reinvigoration of our public life and a fundamental transformation of our way of thinking and living that promotes a transfer of power from oligarchs and plutocrats to everyday people and ordinary citizens.
In everyday things the law of sacrifice takes the form of positive duty.
People who talk about revolution and class struggle without referring explicitly to everyday life without understanding what is subversive about love and what is positive in the refusal of constraints such people have a corpse in their mouth.
Talk of citizenship today is often thin and tinny. The word has a faintly old-fashioned feel to it when used in everyday conversation. When evoked in national politics it's usually accompanied by the shrill whine of a descending culture-war mortar.
One of the big changes in politics has been because families individuals have felt worried insecure... worried about the economy worried about their jobs worried about their kids' futures... actually the disconnect between the public and media discourse and people's everyday concerns has become bigger not smaller.
You can find poetry in your everyday life your memory in what people say on the bus in the news or just what's in your heart.
We tried war we tried aggression we tried intervention. None of it works. Why don't we try peace as a science of human relations not as some vague notion - as everyday work.
I did not want to be a tree a flower or a wave. In a dancer's body we as audience must see ourselves not the imitated behavior of everyday actions not the phenomenon of nature not exotic creatures from another planet but something of the miracle that is a human being.
In our music in our everyday life there are so many negative things. Why not have something positive and stamp it with blackness?
It's not like I just have to go to Washington and go to the White House everyday and go to the same press conference at 10 in the morning and then be briefed at 4 in the afternoon and then get a story on at 6.
I usually decide what to wear in the morning but sometimes I'll have a favorite coat or sweater or shoes and I'll wear them everyday for a week!
A lot of people in the media and some everyday people really aren't in search of the truth. They're in search of something worse than that. Money yeah. I think the media's the kind of a thing where the truth doesn't win because it's no fun. The truth's no fun.
Prior to penicillin and medical research death was an everyday occurrence. It was intimate.
People used to say my son looked like a Mexican Biggie. And when he was first born memories of Biggie... you know we didn't always have the greatest days. For at least half the length of our marriage we were separated so everyday was definitely not a good day.
I have an everyday religion that works for me. Love yourself first and everything else falls into line.
Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.
This is as true in everyday life as it is in battle: we are given one life and the decision is ours whether to wait for circumstances to make up our mind or whether to act and in acting to live.
Urban America has been redlined. Government has not offered tax incentives for investment as it has in a dozen foreign markets. Banks have redlined it. Industries have moved out they've redlined it. Clearly to break up the redlining process there must be incentives to green-line with hedges against risk.
