When I took up the cross I recognized it's meaning. The cross is something that you bear, and ultimately, that you die on.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Courage faces fear and thereby masters it
Martin Luther King, Jr.
If a person sweeps streets for a living, he should sweep them as Michelangelo painted, as Beethoven composed, as Shakespear wrote.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Unity has never meant uniformity.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
When we allow freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city...

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.

Martin Luther King, Jr.
As marvelous as the stars is the mind of the person who studies them.

This is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism.
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.
A piece of freedom is no longer enough for human beings...unlike bread, a slice of liberty does not finish hunger. Freedom is like life. It cannot be had in installments. Freedom is indivisible--we have it all, or we are not free.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
O America, how you've taken necessities from the masses to give luxuries to the classes.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
If you've got nothing worth dying for, you've got nothing worth living for.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Jesus Christ was an extremist for love, truth and goodness.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
A man who hasn't found anything he'd die for doesn't deserve to live.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
When our days become dreary with low-hovering clouds and our nights become darker than a thousand midnights, we will know that we are living in the creative turmoil of a genuine civilization struggling to be born.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
And violence is impractical, because the old eye for an eye philosophy ends up leaving everybody blind .. It is immoral because it is a descending spiral ending in destruction for everybody. Means and ends are inseparable. The means represent the ideal in the making in the long run of history destructive means cannot bring about constructive ends.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Jesus is not an impractical idealist he is the practical realist.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Without love, there is no reason to know anyone, for love will in the end connect us to our neighbors, our children and our hearts.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
