  • "Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."
  • "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."
  • "Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity."
  • "A lie cannot live."
  • "The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character - that is the goal of true education."
  • "A man who won't die for something is not fit to live."
  • "An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity."
  • "I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear."
  • "History will have to record that the greatest tragedy of this period of social transition was not the strident clamor of the bad people, but the appalling silence of the good people."
