“Lightning makes no sound until it strikes.”

Of all the forms of inequality, injustice in health care is the most shocking and inhumane.

Not everybody can be famous but everybody can be great, because greatness is determined by service.

If you can’t fly then run, if you can’t run then walk, if you can’t walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.

Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will.

People fail to get along because they fear each other; they fear each other because they don’t know each other; they don’t know each other because they have not communicated with each other.

The ultimate tragedy is not the oppression and cruelty by the bad people but the silence over that by the good people.

Intelligence plus character-that is the goal of true education.

If you lose hope, somehow you lose the vitality that keeps moving, you lose that courage to be, that quality that helps you go on in spite of it all. And so today I still have a dream.

Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.

We all too often have socialism for the rich and rugged free market capitalism for the poor.

Our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power. We have guided missiles and misguided men.

At the center of non-violence stands the principle of love.

We must live together as brothers or perish together as fools.

Free at last, Free at last, Thank God almighty we are free at last.

There comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but he must take it because conscience tells him it is right.

A right delayed is a right denied.

It is not your job to carry every burden to heal every heart-your love is a divine blessing.

Therapy. Acting classes. Yoga. Strong friendships. All these helped me see and heal parts of me I was trying to hide.

Don’t be afraid to bloom even in the darkest of times, just like moonflower blooms in the depths of the night.

You healed my broken wings with your soothing love and taught me how to fly again one step at a time.

God heals what you hide he keeps blessing your life.

Let me pour onto your glass and let it overflow with abundant love; for your eyes tell me they need refilling, But all you have now is an empty bottle of escaped homes and dreams.

There is no sunrise as beautiful as the one where you realize you are worth a million suns.

I want you he says but you are not mine, She smiles and she says I am not his either, I am my own.
