Everyman is somebody because he is a child of God. And so when we say Thou shalt not kill, we're really saying that human life is too sacred to be taken on the battlefields of the world.

Human progress comes through the tireless efforts and the persistent work of dedicated individuals who are willing to be co-workers with God.

God is not interested merely in freeing black men and brown men and yellow men, but God is interested in freeing the whole human race.

The God that I serve and the God that called me to preach told me that every now and then I'll have to go to jail for them. Every now and then I'll have to agonize and suffer for the freedom of his children. I even may have to die for it. But if that's necessary, I'd rather follow the guidelines of God than to follow the guidelines of men.

If you don't find God in the next person you meet, it is a waste of time looking for him further.

Do you want to do something beautiful for God? There is a person who needs you. This is your chance.
