RIP: Martin Luther King, Jr.

By JULIETTE ROSSANT On this the 38th year since his assassination, Superchefblog pauses publication to remember a national hero by reprinting this epitaph for Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. (January 15, 1929 - April 4, 1968): Even in our sleep, pain which cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, until, in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom through the awful grace of God. —Robert F. Kennedy (November 20, 1925 - June 5, 1968) reciting from the Greek playwright Aeschylus -- two months and one day before his own assassination.
