If a man hasn't discovered something that he will die for, he isn't fit to live.

Violence is not only impractical but immoral.

At times, life is hard, as hard as crucible steel. It has its bleak and painful moments. Like the ever flowing water of a river, life has its moments of drought and its moments of flood. Like the ever-changin cycle of the seasons, life has the soothing warmth of the summers and the piercing chill of its winters. But through it all, God walks with us. Never forget that God is able to lift you from the fatigue of despair to the buoyancy of hope, and transform dark and desolate valleys into sunlit paths of inner peace.

We cannot walk alone. And as we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall always march ahead. We cannot turn back.

Hate is just as injurious to the hater as it is to the hated. Like an unchecked cancer, hate corrodes the personality and eats away its vital unity. Many of our inner conflicts are rooted in hate. This is why the psychiatrists say, "Love or perish." Hate is too great a burden to bear.

I have a dream... I have a dream today... And if America is to be a great nation this must become true.

There's something about love that builds up and is creative. There is something about hate that tears down and is destructive. So love your enemies.
