Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. |
He drew a circle to keep me out, A thing of scorn, and a thing to flout. But love and I had the wit to win: We drew a circle that took him in. |
I keep my ideals, because in spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart. |
When sorrows come, they come not single spies, but in battalions. |
People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within. |
Can I see another's woe, and not be in sorrow too? Can I see another's grief, and not seek for kind relief? |
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." |
The real miracle is not to walk either on water or in thin air, but to walk on earth. |
Alas, poor world, what treasure hast thou lost! |
No man is an island entire of itself ... any man's death diminishes me because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee. |
Better than a thousand hollow words, Is one word that brings peace. |
When death, the great reconciler, has come, it is never our tenderness that we repent of, but our severity. |
A time to weep, and a time to laugh; A time to mourn, and a time to dance. |
No matter how big a nation is, it is no stronger that its weakest people, and as long as you keep a person down, some part of you has to be down there to hold him down, so it means you cannot soar as you might otherwise. |
In separateness lies the world's great misery; in compassion lies the world's true strength. |
Those who commit evil in the name of Allah blaspheme the name of Allah. The terrorists are traitors to their own faith, trying, in effect, to hijack Islam itself. |
The quality of mercy is not strain'd. It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven Upon the place beneath. It is twice blest: It blesseth him that gives and him that takes. |
I ask you to uphold the values of America, and remember why so many have come here. We are in a fight for our principles, and our first responsibility is to live by them. No one should be singled out for unfair treatment or unkind words because of their ethnic background or religious faith. |
Truly you have formed my inmost being; you knit me in my mother's womb. I give you thanks that I am fearfully, wonderfully made; wonderful are your works. |
If we cannot end now our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity. For, in the final analysis, our most common basic link is that we all inhabit this small planet. We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children's future. And we are all mortal. |
