More quotes by Martin Luther King, Jr.
A right delayed is a right denied.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Let us be practical and ask the question: How do we love our enemies?
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.
Unity has never meant uniformity.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
We've learned to fly the air like birds, we've learned to swim the seas like fish, and yet we haven't learned to walk the earth as brothers and sisters
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Everybody has the blues. Everybody longs for meaning. Everybody needs to love and be loved. Everybody needs to clap hands and be happy. Everybody longs for faith. In music, especially this broad category called jazz, there is a stepping-stone to all of these.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
There is no sound more powerful than the marching feet of a determined people.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality... I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Every crisis has both its dangers and its opportunities. Each can spell either salvation or doom.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Courage faces fear and thereby masters it. Cowardice represses fear and is thereby mastered by it.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
A society is always eager to cover misdeeds with a cloak of forgetfulness, but no society can fully repress an ugly past when the ravages persist into the present. America owes a debt of justice which it has only begun to pay.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Wherever schools can be integrated through the busing method, and where it won't be just a, a terrible inconvenience, I think it ought to be done.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Be an artist at whatever you do. Even if you are a street sweeper, be the Michelangelo of street sweepers.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
You cannot defect form an insight. You cannot unsee what you have seen.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
To sway an audience, you must watch them as you speak.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
I feel that the time is always right to do what is right. Where progress for the Negro in America is concerned, there is a tragic misconception of time among whites. They seem to cherish a strange, irrational notion that something in the very flow of time will cure all ills.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
I'm very glad Christ tells us to love our neighbor and not to like our neighbor because it's hard to like someone threatening your children and throwing fire bombs through your window, but He asks us to love them and that I can do
Martin Luther King, Jr.
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.
We must build dikes of courage to hold back the flood of fear. That old law about an eye for an eye leaves everybody blind... The time is always right to do the right thing. Peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek, but a means by which we arrive at that goal.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Love is the only creative, redemptive, transforming power, in the universe.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
