Text Quotes
Brutality was imprisoned in a lumious glare revealing the naked truth to the whole world  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) If your opponent has a conscience, then follow Gandhi and nonviolence. But if your enemy has no conscience like Hitler, then follow Bonhoeffer  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) Now let us begin. Now let us rededicate ourselves to the long and bitter - but beautiful - struggle for a new world  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) The SILENCE of the good people is more DANGEROUS than the BRUTALITY of the bad people  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) Even if I were certain that the world would end tomorrow, I would plant a tree this very day  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) Had it not been for the ministry of my good friend Dr. Billy Graham, my work in the civil rights movement would not have been as successful as it has been  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) There is nothing but a lack of social vision to prevent us from paying an adequate wage to every American citizen whether he be a hospital worker, laundry worker, maid or day laborer  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) When people criticize Zionists, they mean Jews. You are talking anti-Semitism  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) I have DECIDED to love. If you are seeking the highest good, I think you can find it through love. GOD is love  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) The belief that God will do everything for man is as untenable as the belief that man can do everything for himself. It, too, is based on a lack of faith. We must learn that to expect God to do everything while we do nothing is not faith but superstition  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) My friends, all I’m trying to say is that if we are to go forward today, we’ve got to go back and rediscover some mighty precious values that we’ve left behind. That’s the only way that we would be able to make of our world a better world, and to make of this world what God wants it to be and the real purpose and meaning of it  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) I have a dream... I have a dream today... And if America is to be a great nation this must become true  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) Too often an institution serves to bless the majority opinion. Today when too many move to the rhythmic beat of the status quo, whoever would be a Christian must be a nonconformist  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) He (Jesus) knew that the old eye-for-eye philosophy would leave everyone blind. He did not seek to overcome evil with evil. He overcame evil with good. Although crucified by hate, he responded with aggressive love  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) The hope of the world is still in dedicated minorities. The trail-blazers in human, scientific and religious freedom have always been in a minority  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) God has given each normal person a capacity to achieve some end. True, some are endowed with more talent than others, but God has left none of us talentless  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) I think all of us thought that by the 70s, at the latest the 80s, all the world’s problems would be solved and everyone would be getting along fine. And instead we saw that Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated that year, Robert F. Kennedy died. We saw that it was going to be a lot more difficult than I think we had thought  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy. Nothing worthwhile is easy. Your ability to overcome unfavorable situations will provide you with time to demonstrate your true strength and determination for success. Always set your standards high, your greatest achievements lie within the infinite feats you achieve in your life  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) We still have a choice today: nonviolent coexistence or violent co-annihilation. This may well be mankind’s last chance to choose between chaos and community  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) What the Negro wants - and will not stop until he gets - is absolute and unqualified freedom and equality here in this land of his birth, and not in Africa or in some imaginary state. The Negro no longer will be tolerant of anything less than his due right and heritage. He is pursuing only that which he knows is honorably his. He knows that he is right  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) Let the Negro march. Let him make pilgrimages to city hall. Let him go on freedom rides. And above all, make an effort to understand why he must do this. For if his frustration and despair are allowed to continue piling up, millions of Negroes will seek solace and security in black-nationalist ideologies. And this, inevitably, would lead to a frightening racial nightmare  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) The great military leaders of the past have gone, their empires have crumbled and burned to ashes. But the empire of Jesus, built solidly and majestically on the foundation of love, is still growing  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) With all of its false assumptions and evil methods, communism grew as a protest against the hardships of the underprivileged. Communism in theory emphasized a classless society, and a concern for social justice, though the world knows from sad experience that in practice it created new classes and a new lexicon of injustice  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) A host of positive psychological changes inevitably will result from widespread economic security. The dignity of the individual will flourish when the decisions concerning his life are in his own hands, when he has the means to seek self-improvement. Personal conflicts among husbands, wives and children will diminish when the unjust measurement of human worth on the scale of dollars is eliminated  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) Capitalism does not permit an even flow of economic resources. With this system, a small privileged few are rich beyond conscience, and almost all others are doomed to be poor at some level. That’s the way the system works. And since we know that the system will not change the rules, we are going to have to change the system  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) He [Martin Luther King Jr.] always used to say you have no choice about being born or dying. The only thing you have a choice about is what you die for  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) The idea that America elected a black man to be its president forty years after it declined to allow Martin Luther King Jr. to stand on a balcony without getting shot still maintains its power to awe and inspire  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) My all-time heroes are Thurgood Marshall and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., two men who had to really work to achieve what they did. And I had the privilege of meeting them both  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) The assassinations of Martin Luther King, Jr., and Robert F. Kennedy led directly to the passage of a historic law, the Gun Control Act of 1968  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes) Resistance and nonviolence are not in themselves good. There is another element that must be present in our struggle that then makes our resistance and nonviolence truly meaningful. That element is reconciliation. Our ultimate end must be the creation of the beloved community  (Martin Luther King Jr Quotes)
