In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
A genuine leader is not a searcher for consensus but a molder of consensus.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Whatever your life’s work is, do it well. A man should do his job so well that the living, the dead, and the unborn could do it no better.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or in the darkness of destructive selfishness.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
If you can’t fly then run, if you can’t run then walk, if you can’t walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed; We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
There is little hope for us until we become tough-minded enough to break loose from the shackles of prejudice, half-truths, and downright ignorance. The shape of the world today does not permit us the luxury of soft mindedness.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
We may cry out desperately for time to pause in her passage, but time is deaf to every plea and rushes on. Over the bleached bones and jumbled residues of numerous civilizations are written the pathetic words: ‘Too late’.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate, adding deeper darkness to a night that is already void of stars.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Forgiveness does not mean ignoring what has been done or putting a false label on an evil act. It means, rather, that the evil act no longer remains as a barrier to the relationship. Forgiveness is a catalyst creating the atmosphere necessary for a fresh start and a new beginning.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Whenever you are engaged in work that serves humanity and is for the building of humanity, it has dignity and it has worth.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Make a career of humanity… It will enrich your spirit as nothing else possibly can. It will give you that rare sense of nobility that can only spring from love and selflessly helping your fellow man… You will make a greater person of yourself, a greater nation of your country, and a finer world to live in.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
There is nothing more dangerous than to build a society with a large segment of people in that society who feel that they have no stake in it; who feel that that have nothing to lose. People who have stake in their society, protect that society, but when they don’t have it, they unconsciously want to destroy it.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
This often misunderstood and misinterpreted concept has now become an absolute necessity for the survival of man.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
This call for a worldwide fellowship that lifts neighborly concern beyond one’s tribe, race, class and nation is in reality a call for an all-embracing and unconditional love for all men
Quote by -Martin Luther King
In some not too distant tomorrow the radiant stars of love and brotherhood will shine over our great nation with all their scintillating beauty.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
This is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Like the ever-changin cycle of the seasons, life has the soothing warmth of the summers and the piercing chill of its winters.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
So I’m happy tonight. I’m not worried about anything. I’m not fearing any man. Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord!
Quote by -Martin Luther King
When people get caught up with that which is right and they are willing to sacrifice for it, there is no stopping point short of victory.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
If we are to go forward, we must go back and rediscover those precious values – that all reality hinges on moral foundations and that all reality has spiritual control.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
When our days become dreary with low hovering clouds of despair, and when our nights become darker than a thousand midnights, let us remember that there is a creative force in this universe, working to pull down the gigantic mountains of evil, a power that is able to make a way out of no way and transform dark yesterdays into bright tomorrows. Let us realize the arc of the moral universe is long but it bends toward justice.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Evil can be cast out, not by man alone nor by a dictatorial God who invades our lives, but when we open the door and invite God through Christ to enter.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Science investigates; religion interprets. Science gives man knowledge, which is power; religion gives man wisdom, which is control. Science deals mainly with facts; religion deals mainly with values. The two are not rivals.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
To be a Christian without prayer is no more possible than to be alive without breathing.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Now everyone knows that the labor movement did not diminish the strength of the nation but enlarged it. By raising the living standards of millions, labor miraculously created a market for industry and lifted the whole nation to undreamed of levels of production. Those who attack labor forget these simple truths, but history remembers them.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
It is hardly a moral act to encourage others patiently to accept injustice which he himself does not endure.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
There are two types of laws: there are just laws and there are unjust laws… What is the difference between the two?…An unjust law is a man-made code that is out of harmony with the moral law.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Law and order exist for the purpose of establishing justice and when they fail in this purpose they become the dangerously structured dams that block the flow of social progress.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
A man dies when he refuses to stand up for that which is right. A man dies when he refuses to stand up for justice. A man dies when he refuses to take a stand for that which is true.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
The time has come for us to civilize ourselves by the total, direct and immediate abolition of poverty.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
I have the audacity to believe that peoples everywhere can have three meals a day for their bodies, education and culture for their minds, and dignity, equality, and freedom for their spirits.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Knowledge is a process of piling up facts; wisdom lies in their simplification.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
The group consisting of mother, father and child is the main educational agency of mankind.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
We must remember that intelligence is not enough. […] The complete education gives one not only power of concentration, but worthy objectives upon which to concentrate.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Education must enable one to sift and weigh evidence, to discern the true from the false, the real from the unreal, and the facts from the fiction.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Rarely do we find men who willingly engage in hard, solid thinking. There is an almost universal quest for easy answers and half-baked solutions. Nothing pains some people more than having to think.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
You can have no influence over those for whom you have underlying contempt.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
