Nothing in the Golden Rule says that others will treat us as we have treated them. It only says that we must treat others in a way that we would want to be treated.

More quotes by Rosa Parks
Arrest me for sitting on a bus? You may do that.
Rosa Parks
If I can sit down for freedom, you can stand up for children.
Rosa Parks
I had been pushed as far as I could stand to be pushed. I had decided that I would have to know once and for all what rights I had as a human being and a citizen.
Rosa Parks
There is work to do that is why I cannot stop or sit still. As long as a child needs help, as long as people are not free, there will be work to do. As long as an elderly person is attacked or in need of support, there is work to do. As long as we have bigotry and crime, we have work to do.
Rosa Parks
Black women are very capable of leading our organizations. I believe that firmly.
Rosa Parks
We didn't have any civil rights. It was just a matter of survival, of existing from one day to the next. I remember going to sleep as a girl hearing the Klan ride at night and hearing a lynching and being afraid the house would burn down.
Rosa Parks
I do the very best I can to look upon life with optimism and hope and looking forward to a better day.
Rosa Parks
What really matters is not whether we have problems, but how we go through them. We must keep going on to make it through whatever we are facing.
Rosa Parks
It takes more than one person to bring about peace - it takes all of us.
Rosa Parks
When people made up their minds that they wanted to be free and took action, then there was a change.
Rosa Parks
When that white driver stepped back toward us, when he waved his hand and ordered us up and out of our seats, I felt a determination cover my body like a quilt on a winter night.
Rosa Parks
I will always work for human rights for all people.
Rosa Parks
I had felt for a long time, that if I was ever told to get up so a white person could sit, that I would refuse to do so.
Rosa Parks
I believe there is only one race - the human race.
Rosa Parks
One person can change the world.
Rosa Parks
Victory or defeat? It is the slogan of all-powerful militarism in every belligerent nation. And yet, what can victory bring to the proletariat?
Rosa Parks
Without a vision the people perish, but without courage dreams die.
Rosa Parks
I want to be treated like a human being.
Rosa Parks
I knew someone had to take the first step. So I made up my mind not to move.
Rosa Parks
Our mistreatment was just not right, and I was tired of it.
Rosa Parks
