Martin Luther King’s quotes or MLK quotes are as relevant today as they were when he worked for the cause of civil rights in America. Martin Luther King was a great orator and his oratory inspired many, including president-elect Barack Obama who himself has his date with destiny tomorrow. A true man among men, lets look back on a few of his more well known quotes.
MLK quotes owe their effectiveness and inspirational qualities to Martin Luther’s very real concern for a society that would rise above petty prejudices borne out of differences in religion, caste, creed, color, etc.
Today is Martin Luther King day and it would befit tomorrow’s inauguration ceremony of the first black American president if we took time out to reflect on the words of wisdom that Martin Luther King Jr. left us with.
“A nation or civilization that continues to produce soft-minded men purchases its own spiritual death on the installment plan.”
“At the center of non-violence stands the principle of love.”
“I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.”
