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

We are not makers of history, We are made by history
A man who has no confidence in himself can accomplish nothing.
I don’t know where I am going, but I am on my way
The unprepared mind cannot see the outstretched hand of opportunity
If music be the food of love, play on
The life of the dead is set in the memory of the living
While eating lawful food is a radiant light, eating unlawful food is a suffocating darkness. Eating unlawful food kills the heart, whereas the lawful morsel brings the heart to life.
