Text Quotes
The soft minded man always fears change. He feels security in the status quo, and he has an almost morbid fear of the new. For him, the greatest pain is the pain of a new idea (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral, begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy. Instead of diminishing evil, it multiplies it (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
We must combine the toughness of the serpent with the softness of the dove, a tough mind and a tender heart (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
Before the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth, we were here. Before the pen of Jefferson etched across the pages of history the majestic words of the Declaration of Independence, we were here (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
Our forebears labored without wages. They made cotton king. And yet out of a bottomless vitality, they continued to thrive and develop (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
No, no, we are not satisfied, and we will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice. Justice at its best is love correcting everything that stands against love (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
The more there are riots, the more repressive action will take place, and the more we face the danger of a right wing takeover and eventually a fascist society (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
We have learned to fly the air like birds and swim the sea like fish, but we have not learned the simple art of living together as brothers. Our abundance has brought us neither peace of mind nor serenity of spirit (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
We will have to repent in this generation not merely for the vitriolic words and actions of the bad people, but for the appalling silence of the good people (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
An individual who breaks a law that conscience tells him is unjust, and who willingly accepts the penalty of imprisonment in order to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice, is in reality expressing the highest respect for the law (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
Change does not roll in on the wheels of inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle. And so we must straighten our backs and work for our freedom. A man can't ride you unless your back is bent (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
Have we not come to such an impasse in the modern world that we must love our enemies - or else? The chain reaction of evil - hate begetting hate, wars producing more wars - must be broken, or else we shall be plunged into the dark abyss of annihilation (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
I just want to do God's will. And he's allowed me to go to the mountain. And I've looked over, and I've seen the promised land! I may not get there with you, but I want you to know tonight that we as a people will get to the promised land (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
One who breaks an unjust law that conscience tells him is unjust, and who willingly accepts the penalty of imprisonment in order to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice, is in reality expressing the highest respect for law (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
If a man hasn’t discovered something that he will die for, he isn’t fit to live (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
We may have all come on different ships, but we’re in the same boat now (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
The contemporary tendency in our society is to base our distribution on scarcity, which has vanished, and to compress our abundance into the overfed mouths of the middle and upper classes until they gag with superfluity. If democracy is to have breadth of meaning, it is necessary to adjust this inequity. It is not only moral, but it is also intelligent. We are wasting and degrading human life by clinging to archaic thinking (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
I don’t think you can be in public life without being called bad names (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
I’ve always tried to be what I call militantly nonviolent. I don’t believe that anyone could seriously accuse me of not being totally committed to the breakdown of segregation (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
A strong man must be militant as well as moderate. He must be a realist as well as an idealist (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
Time has been used destructively by people of ill will much more than it has been used constructively by those of good will (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
If I were constantly worried about death, I couldn’t function. After a while, if your life is more or less constantly in peril, you come to a point where you accept the possibility philosophically (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
Our lives are not fully lived if we’re not willing to die for those we love, for what we believe (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
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 (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
Hate destroys the very structure of the personality of the hater... when you start hating anybody, it destroys the very center of your creative response to life and the universe; so love everybody (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
Even in the inevitable moments when all seems hopeless, men know that without hope they cannot really live, and in agonizing desperation they cry for the bread of hope (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
When a nation becomes obsessed with the guns of war, it loses its social perspective... There is something about a war like this that makes people insensitive. It dulls the conscience. It strengthens the forces of reaction, and it brings into being bitterness and hatred and violence (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
Within the best of us, there is some evil, and within the worst of us, there is some good. When we come to see this, we take a different attitude toward individuals (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
It is not enough for me to stand before you tonight and condemn riots. It would be morally irresponsible for me to do that without, at the same time, condemning the contingent, intolerable conditions that exist in our society. These conditions are the things that cause individuals to feel that they have no other alternative than to engage in violent rebellions to get attention. And I must say tonight that a riot is the language of the unheard (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
