“A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual doom.”
“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.”
“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.”
“Human progress is neither automatic nor inevitable... Every step toward the goal of justice requires sacrifice, suffering, and struggle; the tireless exertions and passionate concern of dedicated individuals.”
“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... I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word.”
“Life's most persistent and urgent question is, 'What are you doing for others?'”
“Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.”
Thank you, Dr. King.
