“There comes a time when the cup of endurance runs over and men are no longer willing to be plunged into an abyss of injustice where they experience the bleakness of corroding despair.”
“Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.”
“Forgiveness is not an occasional act; it is a permanent attitude.”
“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy. The true neighbor will risk his position, his prestige and even his life for the welfare of others.”
“A man who won't die for something is not fit to live.”
“Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.”
“Any law that uplifts human personality is just. Any law that degrades human personality is unjust.”
