"The bus was a symbol of the segregated South, and my refusal to move was a small act of defiance that sparked a movement."
"I believe in the power of the people to make change."
"I had been pushed around all my life and felt at this moment that I couldn’t take it anymore. When I asked the driver why he was treating me like this, he said, 'I'll have you arrested.'"
"I felt that I had a right to stay where I was. I just felt that I had been there long enough, and I was not going to move."
"There is no future in any job where you don't have the right to be treated with respect."
