Commit yourself to the noble struggle for human rights. You will make a greater person of yourself, a greater nation of your country and a finer world to live in.

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. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly. He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it.

Stand up for justice, stand up for truth; and God will be at your side forever.

Often the oppressor goes along unaware of the evil involved in his oppression so long as the oppressed accepts it.

I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.

If a man has not discovered anything so dying is not worth living

Your self-sacrificin g devotion to your purpose in life and your unwavering faith will carry you through times of difficulty.
