Rosa Parks
Racism is still with us. But it is up to us to prepare our children for what they have to meet, and, hopefully, we shall overcome.
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
Our mistreatment was just not right, and I was tired of it.
Rosa Parks

Rosa Parks
One person can change the world.
Rosa Parks
It takes more than one person to bring about peace - it takes all of us.
Rosa Parks
If you want to be respected for your actions, then your behavior must be above reproach. If our lives demonstrate that we are peaceful, humble, and trusted, this is recognized by others.
Rosa Parks
Many whites, even white Southerners told me that even though it may have seemed like the blacks were being freed (by my actions) they felt more free and at ease themselves. They thought that my action didn't just free blacks but them, too.
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
I knew someone had to take the first step. So I made up my mind not to move.
Rosa Parks
Arrest me for sitting on a bus? You may do that.
Rosa Parks
