This hour in history needs a dedicated circle of transformed nonconformists. Our planet teeters on the brink of annihilation; dangerous passions of pride, hatred, and selfishness are enthroned in our lives; and men do reverence before false gods of nationalism and materialism. The saving of our world from pending doom will come, not through the complacent adjustment of the conforming majority, but through the creative maladjustment of a nonconforming minority.

Faith can give us courage to face the uncertainties of the future.

Another reason why we must love our enemies is that hate scars the soul and distorts the personality.

As a young man with most of my life ahead of me, I decided early to give my life to something eternal and absolute. Not to these little gods that are here today and gone tomorrow. But to God who is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

As marvelous as the stars is the mind of the person who studies them.

If you can’t run, walk; if you can’t walk, crawl, but keep moving forward!

I want to be the white man's brother, not his brother-in-law.
