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
