More quotes by Martin Luther King, Jr.
A man who won't die for something is not fit to live.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Wisdom born of experience should tell us that war is obsolete. There may have been a time when war served as a negative good by preventing the spread and growth of an evil force If we assume that life is worth living, if we assume that mankind has the right to survive, then we must find an alternative to war.
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.
God has given each normal person a capacity to achieve some end. True, some are endowed with more talent than others, but God has left none of us talentless.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
If you can’t run, walk if you can’t walk, crawl, but keep moving forward!
Martin Luther King, Jr.
I imagine you already know that I am much more socialistic in my economic theory than capitalistic.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
We are out to defeat injustice and not white persons who may be unjust.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Man is not made for the state the state is made for man. To deprive man of freedom is to relegate him to the status of a thing, rather than elevate him to the status of a person. Man must never be treated as a means to the end of the state, but always as an end within himself.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
We still have a choice today: nonviolence coesistence or violent coannihilation.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Love is the only creative, redemptive, transforming power, in the universe.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Love is basic for the very survival of mankind. I'm convinced that love is the only absolute ultimately love is the highest good. He who loves has somehow discovered the meaning of ultimate reality. He who hates does not know God he who hates has no knowledge of God. Love is the supreme unifying principle of life.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
The hope of the world is still in dedicated minorities. The trail-blazers in human, scientific and religious freedom have always been in a minority.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Our lives are not fully lived if we're not willing to die for those we love, for what we believe.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Education must enable a man to become more efficient, to achieve with increasing facility the legitimate goals of his life.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
We must develop a federal program of public works, retraining, and jobs for all - so that none, white or black, will have cause to feel threatened . . . There is nothing except shortsightedness to prevent us from guaranteeing an annual minimum and livable income for every American family.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
There can be no deep disappointment where there is not deep love.
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.
A true revolution of values will see that the western arrogance of feeling that it has everything to teach others and nothing to learn from them is not just.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Once you become dedicated to a cause, personal security is not the goal. What will happen to you personally does not matter. My cause, my race, is worth dying for.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
The end of violence or the aftermath of violence is bitterness. The aftermath of nonviolence is reconciliation and the creation of a beloved community. A boycott is never an end within itself. It is merely a means to awaken a sense of shame within the oppressor but the end is reconciliation, the end is redemption.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
