I will always work for human rights for all people.

I had no idea that history was being made. I was just tired of giving up.

I would like to be remembered as a person who wanted to be free... so other people would be also free.

You cannot always control the powers-that-be. You just have to have faith and stand by the things you believe in.

I believe there is only one race - the human race.

As long as people use tactics to oppress or restrict other people from being free, there is work to be done.

When that white driver stepped back toward us, when he waved his hand and ordered us up and out of our seats, I felt a determination cover my body like a quilt on a winter night.
