I am not interested in power for power's sake, but I'm interested in power that is moral, that is right and that is good.

One day we will learn that the heart can never be totally right when the head is totally wrong.

We attempt to discover what is right by taking a sort of gallup poll of the majority opinion. Everybody is doing it, so it must be all right, and therefore we are caught in the clutches of conformity

It's always wrong to hate, but it's never wrong to love.

Perhaps it is better to be irresponsible and right, than to be responsible and wrong.

If the negro is a man, why then my ancient faith teaches me that ``all men are created equal;'' and that there can be no moral right in connection with one man's making a slave of another.
