One has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws. ~Martin Luther King Jr

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

That old law about ‘an eye for an eye’ leaves everybody blind. The time is always right to do the right thing. 

I came to the conclusion that there is an existential moment in your life when you must decide to speak for yourself; nobody else can speak for you

There is nothing more majestic than the determined courage of individuals willing to suffer and sacrifice for their freedom and dignity

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

The true measure of a man is not how he behaves in moments of comfort and convenience but how he stands at times of controversy and challenges

Quotes by Martin Luther King Jr

Audrey Hepburn

 

Audrey Hepburn was a British actress and humanitarian. Recognised as both a film and fashion icon, she was ranked by the American Film Institute as the third-greatest female screen legend from the Golden Age of Hollywood, and was inducted into the International Best Dressed List Hall of Fame.
