"The time is always right to do what is right," Martin Luther King, Jr.

"A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual doom."

"Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere."

"Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or in the darkness of destructive selfishness."

"He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it."

"One who breaks an unjust 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 law."

So many lessons in how to be human, from a man who had too few years on this planet.
