Perhaps the worst sin in life is knowing right and not doing it

Free at last, free at last. Thank God almighty we are free at last.

Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?’

The quality, not the longevity, of one’s life is what is important.

A productive and happy life is not something you find; it is something you make.

One of the great tragedies of life is that men seldom bridge the gulf between practice and profession, between doing and saying.

Property is intended to serve life, and no matter how much we surround it with rights and respect, it has no personal being. It is part of the earth man walks on. It is not man.

What good does it do to sit at the counter when you cannot afford a hamburger?

 At times, life is hard, as hard as crucible steel. It has its bleak and painful moments. Like the ever flowing water of a river, life has its moments of drought and its moments of flood.

Commit yourself to the noble struggle for human rights. You will make a greater person of yourself, a greater nation of your country and a finer world to live in.

A man can’t ride your back unless it’s bent.
