Martin Luther King Jr

'A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual doom.'

'An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity. '

'Have we not come to such an impasse in the modern world that we must love our enemies - or else? The chain reaction of evil - hate begetting hate, wars producing more wars - must be broken, or else we shall be plunged into the dark abyss of annihilation. '

'He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it.'
