Personality is like a charioteer with two headstrong horses, each wanting to go in different directions.

The only weapon that we have in our hands this evening is the weapon of protest. That's all.

We aren't engaged in any negative protest and in any negative arguments with anybody. We are saying that we are determined to be men. We are determined to be people. We are saying that we are God's children. And that we don't have to live like we are forced to live.

The Darwinian concept of the survival of the fittest has been substituted by a philosophy of the survival of the slickest.

If you lose hope, somehow you lose the vitality that keeps moving, you lose that courage to be, that quality that helps you go on in spite of it all. And so today I still have a dream.

We must develop and maintain the capacity to forgive. He who is devoid of the power to forgive is devoid of the power to love.

These are the times for real choices and not false ones. We are at the moment when our lives must be placed on the line if our nation is to survive its own folly. Every man of humane convictions must decide on the protest that best suits his convictions, but we must all protest.
