More quotes by Martin Luther King, Jr.
We may win a battle, but if in doing so we have planted thousands of seeds of hatred and fear..the war is not over- only the present conflict has ceased. There will be no peace as long as we react to violence with violence.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Violence brings only temporary victories violence, by creating many more social problems than it solves, never brings permanent peace.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
The Universe is on the side of Justice
Martin Luther King, Jr.
I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. This is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Make a career of humanity. Commit yourself to the noble struggle for equal rights. You will make a greater person of yourself, a greater nation of your country, and a finer world to live in.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Love even for enemies is the key to the solution of the problems of our world.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
What seems so necessary today may not even be desirable tomorrow.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
There is no sound more powerful than the marching feet of a determined people.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
As my sufferings mounted I soon realized that there were two ways in which I could respond to my situation -- either to react with bitterness or seek to transform the suffering into a creative force. I decided to follow the latter course.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Our children need our presence, not our presents.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
I have a dream that one day little black boys and girls will be holding hands with little white boys and girls.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
When our days become dreary with low-hovering clouds and our nights become darker than a thousand midnights, we will know that we are living in the creative turmoil of a genuine civilization struggling to be born.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
I always had a deep affection for Malcolm and felt that he had a great ability to put his finger on the existence and the root of the problem. He was an eloquent spokesman for his point of view and no one can honestly doubt that Malcolm had a great concern for the problems we face as a race.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Is is always time to do the right thing.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
The softminded person always wants to freeze the moment and hold life in the gripping yoke of sameness.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
White man and black man, jew and gentile, protestant and catholic, will be able to hold hands and sing in the words of the ancient negro spiritual, Free at last, free at last. Thank God almighty! We are free at last!
Martin Luther King, Jr.
True compassion is more than throwing a coin to a beggar. It demands of our humanity that if we live in a society that produces beggars, we are morally commanded to restructure that society.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
If I knew that the world ends tomorrow, I, even today, plant a tree
Martin Luther King, Jr.
There is something in this universe that justifies the biblical writer in saying, You shall reap what you sow. This is a law-abiding universe. This is a moral universe. It hinges on moral foundations. If we are to make of this a better world, we've got to go back and rediscover that precious value that we've left behind.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
I may be crucified for my beliefs and, if I am, you can say, He died to make men free.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
