“Nothing worthwhile is gained without sacrifice.”

Martin Luther King Jr

“Only through an inner spiritual transformation do we gain the strength to fight vigorously the evils of the world in a humble and loving spirit.”

Martin Luther King Jr

“But the judgement of God is upon the church as never before. If today's church does not recapture the sacrificial spirit of the early church, it will lose its authenticity, forfeit the loyalty of millions, and be dismissed as an irrelevant social club with no meaning for the twentieth century. Every day I meet young people whose disappointment with the church has turned into outright disgust.”

Martin Luther King Jr

“Ik raakte ervan overtuigd dat niet meewerken aan een slechte zaak net zo goed een morele verplichting inhoudt als meewerken aan iets goeds.”

Martin Luther King Jr

“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.”

“No person has the right to rain on your dreams.”

Martin Luther King Jr

“God is able to give you the power to endure that which cannot be changed... Why be anxious? Come what may, God is able.”

Martin Luther King Jr

“Violence never really deals with the basic evil of the situation. Violence may murder the murderer, but it doesn’t murder murder. Violence may murder the liar, but it doesn’t murder lie; it doesn’t establish truth. Violence may even murder the dishonest man, but it doesn’t murder dishonesty. Violence may go to the point of murdering the hater, but it doesn’t murder hate. It may increase hate. It is always a descending spiral leading nowhere. This is the ultimate weakness of violence: It multiplies evil and violence in the universe. It doesn’t solve any problems.”

Martin Luther King Jr

“The time is always right to do what is right.”

“I suggested then that the prize was not given merely as recognition of past achievement, but also as recognition, a more profound recognition, that the nonviolent way, the American Negro's way, was the answer to the crucial political and moral question of our time: the need for man to overcome oppression and violence without resorting to violence and oppression.”

Martin Luther King Jr

“When I took up the cross I recognized it's meaning. The cross is something that you bear, and ultimately, that you die on.”

Martin Luther King Jr

“Lightning makes no sound until it strikes.” 

Martin Luther King Jr

“You can't stop a bird from landing on your head. But you can keep it from building a nest.”

Martin Luther King Jr

“Life’s persistent and most urgent question is ‘What are you doing for others?’ ”

Martin Luther King Jr

“Babies, we are told, are the latest news from heaven.”
