The only tired I was, was tired of giving in.

I would like to be known as a person who is concerned about freedom and equality and justice and prosperity for all people.

People need to free their minds of racial prejudice and believe in equality for all and freedom regardless of race. It would be a good thing if all people were treated equally and justly and not be discriminated against because of race or religion or anything that makes them different from others.

It takes more than one person to bring about peace - it takes all of us.

What really matters is not whether we have problems, but how we go through them. We must keep going on to make it through whatever we are facing.

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

I had been pushed as far as I could stand to be pushed. I had decided that I would have to know once and for all what rights I had as a human being and a citizen.
