"Power is the strength required to bring about social, political, and economic change…. Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice, and justice at its best is love correcting everything that stands against love." — Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
"I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality…. I have the audacity to believe that peoples everywhere can have three meals a day for their bodies, education and culture for their minds, and dignity, equality, and freedom for their spirits. I believe that what self-centered men have torn down, men other-centered can build up…. I still believe that we shall overcome." — Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
