Martin Luther King

It is not enough to say we must not wage war. It is necessary to love peace and sacrifice for it.

We must concentrate not merely on the negative expulsion of war but the postive affirmation of peace.

Peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek, but a means by which we arrive at that goal.

The hope of a secure and livable world lies with disciplined nonconformists who are dedicated to justice, peace and brotherhood.

I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality… I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word.
