Today's Inspirational Quote from Our Flag
... on the anniversary of Rosa Parks refusing to move to the back, to the "colored" section, of a Montgomery public bus ...
"People always say that I didn't give up my (bus) seat because I was tired, but that isn't true.
I was not tired physically...
No, the only tired I was, was tired of giving in."
"I would like to be remembered as a person who wanted to be free...
so other people would be also free."
- Rosa Parks, the "Mother of the Civil Rights Movement"
