Yesterday & Today ....
"I was the invited speaker at the Harvard Law School Forum. I happened to glance through a window. Abruptly, I realized that I was looking in the direction of the apartment house that was my old burglary gang's hideout.

"It rocked me like a tidal wave. ...

"My greatest lack has been, I believe, that I don't have the kind of academic education I wishI'd been able to get -- to have been a lawyer, perhaps. I do believe I might have made a good lawyer. I have always loved verbal battle, and challenge. ...

"Sometimes I have dared to dream to myself that one day, history may even say that my voice ... helped to save America from a grave, possibly even fatal catastrophe."

--The Autobiography of Malcolm X
