More quotes by Martin Luther King, Jr.

Martin Luther King, Jr.
Free at last, Free at last, Thank God almighty we are free at last.
Martin Luther King, Jr.

Martin Luther King, Jr.
Look to a day when people will not be judged by the color of their skin.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
To be Negro in America is to hope against hope.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
I think a revolution can survive without single centralized leadership.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
In every age and every generation, men have envisioned a promised land. Some may have envisioned it with the wrong ideology, with the wrong philosophical presupposition. But men in every generation thought in terms of some promised land.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Like Paul, I must constantly respond to the Macedonian call for aid.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
So when Jesus says Love your enemies, he is setting forth a profound and ultimately inescapable admonition.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
No work is insignificant. All labor that uplifts humanity has dignity
Martin Luther King, Jr.
I choose to give my life for those who have been left out of the sunlight of opportunity
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Nonviolence is the most potent technique for oppressed people. Unearned suffering is redemptive.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
