"If a city has a 30% Negro..." - Quote by Martin Luther King Jr

“I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit together at the table of brotherhood.”

“‎It is a cruel injustice to tell a bootless man to pull himself up by his bootstraps.”

“Once you become dedicated to a cause, personal security is not the goal. What will happen to you personally does not matter. My cause, my race, is worth dying for.”

“We live, in fact, in a world starved for solitude, silence, and private: and therefore starved for meditation and true friendship.”

“"Don't you want to join us?" I was recently asked by an acquaintance when he ran across me alone after midnight in a coffeehouse that was already almost deserted. "No, I don't," I said.”

“He loved books; books are cold but safe friends.”

“At some point you have to forget about grudges because they only hurt.”

“We can do nothing without the body, let us always take care that it is in the best condition to sustain us.”

“Take care of your body. It's the only place you have to live.”
