"All labor that uplifts humanity has dignity..." - Quote by Martin Luther King Jr

“Violence is not the way.”

“We will not build a peaceful world by following a negative path. It is not enough to say we will not wage war. It is necessary to love peace and sacrifice for it. We must concentrate not merely on the negative expulsion of war, but on the positive affirmation of peace”

“We have flown the air like birds and swum the sea like fishes, but have yet to learn the simple act of walking the earth like brothers.”

“More men die of worry than of work, because more men worry than work.”

“Who are the happiest people on earth? A craftsman or artist whistling over a job well done. A little child building sand castles. A mother, after a busy day, bathing her baby. A doctor who has finished a difficult and dangerous operation, and saved a human life. Happiness lies in a constructive job well done. Get your happiness out of your work or you will never know what happiness is.”

“Fill the brain with high thoughts, highest ideals, place them day and night before you, and out of that will come great work.”

“He that hath a trade hath an estate; and he that hath a calling hath a place of profit and honor. A ploughman on his legs is higher than a gentleman on his knees.”

“Man must never be treated as a means to the end of the state, but always as an end within himself.”

“They cannot take away our self-respect if we do not give it to them.”
