"Cowardice asks the question, 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question, 'Is it politic?' Vanity asks the question, 'Is it popular?' But, conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?' And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but one must take it because one's conscience tells one that it is right." "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character." "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." "Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity."

"If there is any principle of the Constitution that more imperatively calls for attachment than any other it is the principle of free thought, not free thought for those who agree with us but freedom for the thought that we hate."

"What once was thought can never be unthought." "The moment we want to believe something, we suddenly see all the arguments for it, and become blind to the arguments against it."
