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
Memories of our lives, of our works and our deeds will continue in others.
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
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
As long as there is unemployment, war, crime and all things that go to the infliction of man's inhumanity to man, regardless - there is much to be done, and people need to work together.
Rosa Parks
Why do you all push us around?
Rosa Parks
Black women are very capable of leading our organizations. I believe that firmly.
Rosa Parks
Our mistreatment was just not right, and I was tired of it.
Rosa Parks
It takes more than one person to bring about peace - it takes all of us.
Rosa Parks
My resisting being mistreated on the bus did not begin with that particular arrest…I did a lot of walking in Montgomery.
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
Racial pride and self-dignity were emphasized in my family and community.
Rosa Parks
Without a vision the people perish, but without courage dreams die.
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.
Rosa Parks
People need to free their minds of racial prejudice and believe in equality for all and freedom regardless of race. It would be a good thing if all people were treated equally and justly and not be discriminated against because of race or religion or anything that makes them different from others.
Rosa Parks
I believe there is only one race - the human race.
Rosa Parks
An opportunity was being given to me to do what I had asked of others.
Rosa Parks
I want to be treated like a human being.
Rosa Parks
The only tired I was, was tired of giving in.
Rosa Parks
I would like to be known as a person who is concerned about freedom and equality and justice and prosperity for all people.
Rosa Parks
I have learned over the years that when one's mind is made up, this diminishes fear knowing what must be done does away with fear.
Rosa Parks
