Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.
Free at last, Free at last, Thank God almighty we are free at last.
Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred.
It does not matter how long you live, but how well you do it.
Now there is a final reason I think that Jesus says, "Love your enemies." It is this: that love has within it a redemptive power. And there is a power there that eventually transforms individuals. Just keep being friendly to that person. Just keep loving them, and they can’t stand it too long. Oh, they react in many ways in the beginning. They react with guilt feelings, and sometimes they’ll hate you a little more at that transition period, but just keep loving them. And by the power of your love they will break down under the load. That’s love, you see. It is redemptive, and this is why Jesus says love. There’s something about love that builds up and is creative. There is something about hate that tears down and is destructive. So love your enemies. (from "Loving Your Enemies")
There can be no deep disappointment where there is not deep love.
And so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.
I have a dream that one day little black boys and girls will be holding hands with little white boys and girls.
We must live together as brothers or perish together as fools.
One day we will learn that the heart can never be totally right when the head is totally wrong
