“As you intend to live hereafter, it is in your power to live here.”

“No thought for the hereafter have the wise,
for on this very earth they live in paradise”

“Whether you are young or old, what matters is the grace to continue living hereafter. A man may die young yet be satisfied with living but a wicked man is not satisfied even with long life.”

“How you start your day is how you live your day. How you live your day is how you live your life.”

“I intend to live forever, or die trying.”

“Every day, you have the power to choose our better history — by opening your hearts and minds, by speaking up for what you know is right, by sharing the lessons of Brown versus Board of Education, the lessons you learned right here in Topeka, wherever you go for the rest of your lives.”

“I may be a fool, but I intend to be a live fool.”

“You live life once, you live it by your principles and you live it courageously- that’s what it's about.”

“Do not act as if you had ten thousand years to throw away. Death stands at your elbow. Be good for something while you live and it is in your power.”

“I intend to live forever. So far, so good.”
