Knowledge is a process of piling up facts wisdom lies in their simplification.
Martin Luther King, Jr.

Martin Luther King, Jr.
Three simple words can describe the nature of the social revolution that is talking place and what Negroes really want. They are the words all, now, and here.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Like anybody, I would like to have a long life. Longevity has its place. But I'm not concerned about that now. I just want to do God's will.
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.
Love is somehow the key that unlocks the door which leads to ultimate reality.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Some people are so worn down by the yoke of oppression that they give up.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Never before have I written so long a letter. I'm afraid it is much too long to take your precious time. I can assure you that it would have been much shorter if I had been writing from a comfortable desk, but what else can one do when he is alone in a narrow jail cell, other than write long letters, think long thoughts, and pray long prayers?
Martin Luther King, Jr.
There is no gain without struggle.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
A second way that oppressed people sometimes deal with oppression is to resort to physical violence and corroding hatred.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Everyone has an opportunity to be great because everyone has an opportunity to serve.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Millions of citizens are deeply disturbed that the military-industrial complex too often shapes national policy, but they do not want to be considered unpatriotic.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
True compassion is more than flinging a coin to a beggar it comes to see that an edifice which produces beggars needs restructuring.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
It is a sad fact that because of comfort, complacency, a morbid fear of communism, and our proneness to adjust to injustice, the Western nations that initiated so much of the revolutionary spirit of the modern world have now become the arch-antirevolutionaries.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
In order to be true to one's conscience and true to God, a righteous man has no alternative but to refuse to cooperate with an evil system.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
It is cheerful to God when you rejoice or laugh from the bottom of your heart.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
If the church of today does not recapture the sacrificial spirit of the early church, it will lose its authentic ring, forfeit the loyalty of millions, and be dismissed as an irrelevant social club with no meaning for the twentieth century.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
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.
The problem of racism, the problem of economic exploitation, and the problem of war are all tied together. These are the triple evils that are interrelated.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
We must learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
