| “ | Human salvation lies in the hands of the creatively maladjusted. | ” |
| “ | I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. That is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant. | ” |
| “ | I submit that an individual who breaks a law that conscience tells him is unjust, and who willingly accepts the penalty of imprisonment in order to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice, is in reality expressing the highest respect for the law.
| ” |
| “ | In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.
| ” |
| “ | It may be true that the law cannot make a man love me, but it can stop him from lynching me, and I think that's pretty important. | ” |
| “ | Let no man pull you low enough to hate him. | ” |
| “ | Like an unchecked cancer, hate corrodes the personality and eats away its vital unity. Hate destroys a man's sense of values and his objectivity. It causes him to describe the beautiful as ugly and the ugly as beautiful, and to confuse the true with the false and the false with the true. | ” |
