RFK on the Assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. April 4, 1968

"For those of you who are black and are tempted to be filled with hatred and mistrust of the injustice of such an act, against all white people, I would only say that I can also feel in my own heart the same kind of feeling. I had a member of my family killed, but he was killed by a white man."   -RFK

He who learns must suffer,
A
nd even in our sleep,
Pain which cannot forget
Falls drop by drop upon the heart,
And in our own despite,
Against our will,
Comes wisdom to us
By the awful grace of God.

- Aeschylus, Agamemnon
