Please be peaceful. We believe in law and order. We are not advocating violence, I want you to love your enemies... for what we are doing is right, what we are doing is just -- and God is with us.

I want to suggest some of the things that should begin your life's blueprint. Number one...should be a deep belief in your own dignity. Your worth and your own somebodiness... Always feel that you count. Always feel that you have worth, and always feel that your life has ultimate significance.

Justice denied anywhere diminishes justice everywhere.

Violence ends up defeating itself. It creates bitterness in the survivors and brutality in the destroyers.

Education must enable a man to become more efficient, to achieve with increasing facility the legitimate goals of his life.

I'm very glad Christ tells us to love our neighbor and not to like our neighbor because it's hard to like someone threatening your children and throwing fire bombs through your window, but He asks us to love them and that I can do

Nonviolence is not sterile passivity, but a powerful moral force which makes for social transformation.
