Rosa Parks

"Whatever my individual desires were to be free, I was not alone. There were many others who felt the same way."

"Racism is still with us. But it is up to us to prepare our children for what they have to meet, and, hopefully, we shall overcome."

"I have learned over the years that when one's mind is made up, this diminishes fear knowing what must be done does away with fear."

"All I was doing was trying to get home from work."

"Each person must live their life as a model for others."
