A life is not important except in the impact it has on other lives.
Life is not a spectator sport.
I'm not concerned with your liking or disliking me. All I ask is that you respect me as a human being.
" It's not an easy thing to be a pioneer, but it is a great thing."
" I'm not concerned with your liking or disliking me. All I ask is that you respect me as a human being."
" A life is not important except in the impact it has on other lives."
" The most important thing is to be yourself and to be true to yourself."
" I could never prove to you that I was a better man than you, but I could prove to you that I was a better ballplayer."
I could never be a politician.
It's not an easy thing to be a pioneer.
The most important thing is to be yourself.
The most important thing is not the triumph but the struggle.
You can’t steal second base and keep one foot on first.
I am not a Negro. I am a man.
It's not an experiment. It's a way of life.
I’m not a hero. I’m just a man.
I could never prove that I was a better player than the others.
The only way to prove that you’re a good sport is to lose.
' A life is not important except in the impact it has on other lives.'
I never cared about acceptance as much as I cared about respect.
It's not the honor that you take with you, but the heritage you leave behind.
I'm not concerned with your liking or disliking me. All I ask is that you respect me.
I never wanted to be a star. I wanted to be a man.
