philosophy believe equality
I firmly believe that the Gandhian philosophy of nonviolent resistance is the only logical and moral approach to the solution of the race problem in the United States.
ghetto home boys
They asked if our own nation wasn't using massive doses of violence to solve its problems, to bring about the changes it wanted. Their questions hit home, and I knew that I could never again raise my voice against the violence of the oppressed in the ghettos without having first spoken clearly to the greatest purveyor of violence in the world today-my own government. For the sake of those boys, for the sake of this government, for the sake of hundreds of thousands trembling under our violence, I cannot be silent.
essence
You're as good as anybody.
war moving land
We've been in the mountain of war. We've been in the mountain of violence. We've been in the mountain of hatred long enough. It is necessary to move on now, but only by moving out of this mountain can we move to the promised land of justice and brotherhood and the Kingdom of God. It all boils down to the fact that we must never allow ourselves to become satisfied with unattained goals. We must always maintain a kind of divine discontent.
right-time right-thing
It is always the right time to do the right thing.
hate humility night
The darkness of racial injustice will be dispelled only by the light of forgiving love. For more that three centuries American Negroes have been frustrated by day and bewilderment by night by unbearable injustice, and burdened with the ugly weight of discrimination. Forced to live with these shameful conditions, we are tempted to become bitter and retaliate with a corresponding hate. But if this happens, the new order we seek will be little more than a duplicate of the old order. We must in strength and humility meet hate with love.
hate personality soul
Another reason why we must love our enemies is that hate scars the soul and distorts the personality.
feels
Don't allow anybody to make you feel that you're nobody.
mean talking people
When people criticize Zionists, they mean Jews. You are talking anti-Semitism.
heart today ifs
Is your heart right? If your heart isn't right, fix it up today.
Some things are right, whether nobody sees you doing them or not.
world made ifs
God made the world from nothing, and if we can be nothing, then God can make something of us.
civil-rights-leaders
Never, never be afraid to do what's right.
manhood
Don't let anybody take your manhood.
