Ms. Maya Angelou, an inspiring American poet, storyteller, civil right activist, and autobiographer, was born on April 4, 1928 (https:\/\/shorturl.at\/CDJ08<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. an exceptional Baptist minister and a top leader of the civil rights movement in the United States, was assassinated on April 4, 1968 (https:\/\/shorturl.at\/bAFGT<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to both of them for the incredible inspiration… May their memory be eternal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To honour their respective legacy, Bambi will start by sharing four of their own famous quotes. As usual, she will end in music with three songs: the first on loving others (Mr. Daniel L\u00e9vi, in French and sub-titled in English). The second on loving life (Mr. Julio Iglesias in French). Last but not least, the third song is about a loving dream related to fairness in our world (Les Enfantastiques in French).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Love life. Engage in it. Give it all you’ve got. Love it with a passion because life truly does give back, many times over, what you put into it”<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I look to a day when people will not be judged by the colour of their skin, but by the content of their character<\/em>“.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that”.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Out of the mountain of despair, a stone of hope<\/em>“<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into a friend<\/em>“.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
