10 Inspiring Quotes by Martin Luther King Jr.

As we reflect on the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., his words continue to guide us in the pursuit of justice, equality, and love. Here are 10 of his most powerful quotes:
1. “I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight; and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.”
2. “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.”
3. “The time is always right to do what is right.”
4. “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.”
5. “Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase.”
6. “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?’”
7. “Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.”
8. “The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.”
9. “We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope.”
10. “Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed.”
