Quote by -Martin Luther King
At times, life is hard, as hard as crucible steel. It has its bleak and painful moments. Like the ever flowing water of a river, life has its moments of drought and its moments of flood.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
What good does it do to sit at the counter when you cannot afford a hamburger?
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Property is intended to serve life, and no matter how much we surround it with rights and respect, it has no personal being. It is part of the earth man walks on. It is not man.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
One of the great tragedies of life is that men seldom bridge the gulf between practice and profession, between doing and saying.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?’
Quote by -Martin Luther King
We must learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Those who love peace must learn to organize as effectively as those who love war.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
At the center of non-violence stands the principle of love.At the center of non-violence stands the principle of love.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Not everybody can be famous but everybody can be great, because greatness is determined by service.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. This is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
I am convinced that love is the most durable power in the world. It is not an expression of impractical idealism, but of practical realism.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Power properly understood is nothing but the ability to achieve purpose… one of the great problems of history is that the concepts of love and power have usually been contrasted as opposites – polar opposites – so that love is identified with a resignation of power, and power with a denial of love.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Love is the key that unlocks the door which leads to ultimate reality.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
When I speak of love, I am speaking of that force which all the great religions have seen as the supreme unifying principle of life.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Everybody can be great… because anybody can serve. You don’t have to have a college degree to serve. You don’t have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
It may be true that the law cannot make a man love me, but it can keep him from lynching me, and I think that’s pretty important.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Hate begets hate; violence begets violence; toughness begets a greater toughness. We must meet the forces of hate with the power of love.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Keep feeling the need for being first. But I want you to be the first in love. I want you to be the first in moral excellence. I want you to be the first in generosity.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Power without love is reckless and abusive, and love without power is sentimental and anemic.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
The silence of the good people is more dangerous than the brutaliy of the bad people.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
History will have to record that the greatest tragedy of this period of social transition was not the strident clamor of the bad people, but the appalling silence of the good people.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
The ultimate tragedy is not the oppression and cruelty by the bad people but the silence over that by the good people.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
It’s not the violence of the few that scares me, it’s the silence of the many.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
For from his view we may indeed see the basic weaknesses of our own condition, and if we are mature, we may learn and grow and profit from the wisdom of the brothers who are called the opposition.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Here is the true meaning and value of compassion and nonviolence, when it helps us to see the enemy’s point of view, to hear his questions, to know his assessment of ourselves.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
The choice is not between violence and nonviolence but between nonviolence and nonexistence.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
We must concentrate not merely on the negative expulsion of war but the positive affirmation of peace.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
There is something strangely inconsistent about a nation and a press that would praise you when you say, ‘Be nonviolent toward Jim Clark,’ but will curse and damn you when you say, ‘Be nonviolent toward little brown Vietnamese children.’ There is something wrong with that press.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
We who in engage in nonviolent direct action are not the creators of tension. We merely bring to the surface the hidden tension that is already alive.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
We still have a choice today: nonviolent coexistence or violent coannihilation. This may well be mankind’s last chance to choose between chaos and community.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
We must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical violence.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek, but a means by which we arrive at that goal.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
