More quotes by Martin Luther King, Jr.
To ignore evil is to become an accomplice to it.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Those who love peace must learn to organize as effectively as those who love war.
Martin Luther King, Jr.

Martin Luther King, Jr.
A world war - God forbid! - will leave only smoldering ashes as a mute testimony of a human race whose folly led inexorably to untimely death. Yet there are those who sincerely feel that disarmament is an evil and international negotiation is an abominable waste of time.
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.
Everybody can be great...because anybody can serve. You don't have to have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Are you able to accept blows without retaliating? and Are you able to endure the ordeals of jail?

Martin Luther King, Jr.
The ability to lead a happy life is made, not found
Martin Luther King, Jr.

Martin Luther King, Jr.
We have genuflected before the god of science only to find that it has given us the atomic bomb, producing fears and anxieties that science can never mitigate.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
There are always those who say legislation can't solve the problem. There is a half-truth involved here. It is true that legislation cannot solve the whole problem. It can solve some of the problem. It may be true that morality can't be legislated, but behavior can be regulated.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
As a young man with most of my life ahead of me, I decided early to give my life to something eternal and absolute. Not to these little gods that are here today and gone tomorrow. But to God who is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
We were not unmindful of the difficulties involved. So we decided to go through a process of self-purification.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
If you have not discovered something you are willing to die for, then you are not fit to live.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
I would suffer all the humiliation, all the torture, the absolute ostracism and even death, to prevent violence
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Racial segregation must be seen for what it is, and that is an evil system, a new form of slavery covered up with certain niceties of complexity.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
