Martin Luther King Jr.

“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort, but where he stands at times of challenge.”

“Only in the darkness can you see the stars.”

“We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope.”

“Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or in the darkness of destructive selfishness.”

“Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into a friend.”

“There comes a time when silence is betrayal.”

“Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.”

“A man who won't die for something is not fit to live.”

“Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.”

“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.”

“The time is always right to do what is right.”

“In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.”

“Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase.”

“Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.”

“Life's most persistent and urgent question is: What are you doing for others?”

“If you can't fly then run, if you can't run then walk, if you can't walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.”

“Intelligence plus character, that is the goal of true education.”

“True peace is not merely the absence of tension; it is the presence of justice.”
