Quotes by Martin Luther King, Jr.


"Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter."


"We must concentrate not merely on the negative expulsion of war but the postive affirmation of peace."


"We will have to repent in this generation not merely for the vitriolic words and actions of the bad people, but for the appalling silence of the good people."


"Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly. I can never be what I ought to be until you are what you ought to be. This is the interrelated structure of reality."


"Whatever your life's work is, do it well. A man should do his job so well that the living, the dead, and the unborn could do it no better."
