Political philosopher and activist Martin Luther King Jr. was one of the most eminent leaders in the civil rights movement till his assassination in 1968. Here are 5 quotes by him on justice and equality:
“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.”
“We shall overcome because the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.”
“We must come to see that the end we seek is a society at peace with itself, a society that can live with its conscience.”
“True peace is not merely the absence of tension; it is the presence of justice.”
“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.”
