Martin Luther King, Jr.
I would not hesitate to say that it is unfortunate that so-called demonstrations are taking place in Birmingham at this time, but I would say in more emphatic terms that it is even more unfortunate that the white power structure of this city left the Negro community with no other alternative.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Cowardice is submissive surrender to circumstances.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
There is no gain without struggle.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Let us be practical and ask the question: How do we love our enemies?
