Hi this is Tutor Nick P and this is Quotes 213. Today we have a ...we're going to actually do
two quotes by Martin Luther King jr . Again, it's around that time of year.
Martin Luther King jr. Day or Martin Luther King Day is coming soon. So this
is kind of in honor of him and we're actually going to cover two of his quotes
in this video. All right. So let's take a look at the first one. "The time is always
right to do what is right." Yeah. It's not always easy to follow this , but you know
it is kind of deep. It's, it's short it's simple but it's deep. Let's continue here.
The quote by MLK jr. Yeah. A lot of times you see his name abbreviated as MLK as
well. This quote by MLK was said to encourage us all to be brave enough to
do the right thing when we can identify what is the right thing. Remember he was
a preacher. So that was his, that was his you know, that was his skill that was his
ability, that was his job to inspire people to get them to, to , to change their
behavior. To want to do the right things. So sometimes we do argue amongst
ourselves what is the right thing and other times we know instinctively. We
know instinctively what is right and what is wrong. So it's at that time that
you're supposed to do the right thing. When you know deep down inside. I know
sometimes it's a little scary to do the right things or you're afraid that
you'll upset other people by doing the right thing. But that's when you're
supposed to do it. When you really know instinctively. Yeah. This is definitely
the right thing. This is definitely the wrong thing.
Okay. Let's continue. If we truly tried to do the right thing even on a small scale,
we can become better people and hopefully our actions can spread to
others. Okay. So well you know, this is the second quote is kind of connected to the
first one. So let's look at the second one here too. "If I cannot do great
things, I can do small things in a great way. " Okay. Well Martin Luther King
knew that everybody everybody couldn't be like him. Everybody couldn't you know,
be out in front , but in they could have taken many small steps to try to do the
right thing or to tryi to help that movement. So let's continue. The
quote is said to inspire everyone even if your life is ordinary. We still do
tasks each day and interact with others by focusing on our small tasks and doing
them as well as we can we can also affect inspire or at least cheer up
others if we put in the effort. Okay. Anyway, I hope you got it. I
hope it was clear. Thank you for your time. Bye-bye.
