We are not makers of history, We are made by history
American Baptist minister and activist who became the most visible spokesperson and leader in the civil rights movement.
Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will
There is nothing more tragic than to find an individual bogged down in the length of life, devoid of breadth
We must use time creatively, in the knowledge that the time is always ripe to do right
Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or in the darkness of destructive selfishness
Lightning makes no sound until it strike
Train people well enough so they can leave, treat them well enough so they don't want to
The price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men
But only he who, himself enlightened, is not afraid of shadows
The best deed of a great man is to forgive and forget
Goodbyes are only for those who love with their eyes. Because for those who love with heart and soul there is no such thing as separation.
Some cause happiness wherever they go; others whenever they go
