Martin Luther King, Jr. Day: Our Favorite Quotes

January 17, 2011 by

Happy Martin Luther King Day!

In honor of this great man, mycatholicblog presents some of our favorite quotes by this inspirational Civil Rights leader on love and faith:

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.

Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase.

I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. This is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant.

I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.
