Martin Luther King, Jr.
We can dream of an America, and a world, in which love and not money are civilization's bottom line.
Martin Luther King, Jr.

Martin Luther King, Jr.

Martin Luther King, Jr.
Justice is love correcting that which revolts against love.
Martin Luther King, Jr.

Martin Luther King, Jr.
A man who won't die for something is not fit to live.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
We must see the great distinction between a reform movement and a revolutionary movement. We are called upon to raise certain basic questions about the whole society . . . . What America must be told today is that she must be born again. The whole structure of American life must be changed.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Without God, all of our efforts turn to ashes and our sunrise into the darkest of nights.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Oh, the worst of all tragedies is not to die young, but to live until I am seventy five and yet not ever truly to have lived.

We ain't goin' study war no more.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
