VALUE QUOTES

“What makes us Americans is our shared commitment to an idea that all of us are created equal, and all of us have the chance to make of our lives what we will.”

“You always have two choices: your commitment versus your fear.”

President Obama’s quote supports Robinson’s belief that we were all created equal. Robinson worked tirelessly to make life better for everyone and was an
inspiration to many.
Also, in looking at the quote of Sammy Davis Jr., it is clear that Robinson chooses commitment over fear as he fought to change America.
