More quotes by Rosa Parks

There is a lack of interest in voting in the United States, and that troubles me. It is very necessary that people get registered, study the issues and be aware of the politics of our country. We will really be set back if people don't take the time to learn about the candidates who are concerned about the well-being of all the citizens and vote.

Without a vision the people perish, but without courage dreams die.
Rosa Parks
Every day before supper and before we went to services on Sundays. My grandmother would read the Bible to me, and my grandfather would pray. We even had devotions before going to pick cotton in the fields. Prayer and the Bible, became a part of my everyday thoughts and beliefs. I learned to put my trust in God and to seek Him as my strength.
Rosa Parks
An opportunity was being given to me to do what I had asked of others.

When people made up their minds that they wanted to be free and took action, then there was a change.
Rosa Parks
