Luther Quotes - Page 3

• Martin Luther King Jr's agenda was not to help Negroes overcome American apartheid in the south. It was to make America democracy a better place, where everyday people, from poor people who were white and red and yellow and black and brown, would be able to live lives in decency and dignity.

• When you say that [Martin Luther] King was a prophet, you don't say that he predicted anything; you say that he bore witness. He left a committed life so that people would never forget the suffering of people that he was connected to. King was prophetic because he lived a committed life. Now he did critique society, saying you're going to go under if you don't treat your poor right. I mean, that is part of prophetic calling, but it's not predicting anything.

• Todas las conversaciones sobre los legados de la supremacía blanca deben estar vinculadas a la potenciación de las vidas de los pobres y los trabajadores en su conjunto. La agenda negra -desde Frederick Douglas a A. Philip Randolph, pasando por Martin Luther King Jr, Fannie Lou Hammer o Ella Baker- siempre ha estado ligada a un discurso sobre la raza inseparable de la ampliación de las posibilidades de la democracia, de la ampliación de la autonomía de la gente corriente.

• Martin Luther King, Malcolm X, the Kennedys—there is always a pattern where a piece of information is destroyed, in which a witness is killed. It’s so predictable, you can go back and look up old cases.

• Martin Luther King desafió la conciencia de mi generación, y sus palabras y su legado siguen moviendo a generaciones a la acción hoy en día en casa y en todo el mundo. Su amor y su fe están vivos en millones de estadounidenses que trabajan cada día como voluntarios en comedores sociales o en escuelas, o que se negaron a ignorar el sufrimiento de millones de personas que no conocían en lugares lejanos cuando un tsunami provocó una destrucción impensable. Su visión y su pasión están vivas en las iglesias y en los campus, cuando millones de personas se levantan contra la injusticia de la discriminación en cualquier lugar, o contra la indiferencia que deja atrás a demasiados.

• Martin Luther described the doctrine of justification by faith as the article of faith that decides whether the church is standing or falling. By this he meant that when this doctrine is understood, believed, and preached, as it was in New-Testament times, the church stands in the grace of God and is alive; but where it is neglected, overlaid, or denied, ... the church falls from grace and its life drains away, leaving it in a state of darkness and death.

• Desde que Martin Luther cerró los ojos, ningún hijo de nuestro pueblo ha vuelto a aparecer. Se ha decidido que seremos los primeros en presenciar su reaparición....
