As we remember the late and great Martin Luther King Jr. Today, here are some powerful quotes to live by.
-
"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."
- "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter."
- "The time is always right to do what is right."
- "The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice."
- "The quality, not the longevity, of one’s life is what is important."
- "We may have all come on different ships, but we’re in the same boat now."
- "Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed."
- "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter."
-
"There comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but he must take it because conscience tells him it is right."
