lynching government people
The government can't make people love me, but it can keep them from lynching me.
powerful love-is world
Unarmed love is the most powerful force in all the world.
people suffering technique
Nonviolence is the most potent technique for oppressed people. Unearned suffering is redemptive.
disappointment giving priorities
I would urge you to give priority to the search for God. Allow his spirit to permeate your being. ... If you do not have a deep and patient faith in God, you will be powerless to face the delays, disappointments, and vicissitudes that inevitably come.
believe land people
I may not get there with you, but I believe that we as a people will someday reach the promised land.
destiny atlanta ideas
I am cognizant of the interrelatedness of all communities and states. I cannot sit idly by in Atlanta and not be concerned about what happens in Birmingham. Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly. Never again can we afford to live with the narrow, provincial "outside agitator" idea.
war deeds too-late
Before it is too late, we must narrow the gaping chasm between our proclomations of peace and our lowly deeds which precipitate and perpetuate war.
media everyday poverty
It is not only poverty that torments the Negro; it is the fact of poverty amid plenty. It is a misery generated by the gulf between the affluence he sees in the mass media and the deprivation he experiences in his everyday life.
wisdom country fun
Never could I advocate nonviolence in this country and not advocate nonviolence for the whole world.
wisdom fun evil
It's just as evil to kill Vietnamese as it is to kill Americans.
christian peace commitment
Whenever the early Christians entered a town the power structure got disturbed and immediately sought to convict them for being "disturbers of the peace" and "outside agitators." But they went on with the conviction that they were "a colony of heaven," and had to obey God rather than man. They were small in number but big in commitment. They were too God-intoxicated to be "astronomically intimidated." They brought an end to such ancient evils as infanticide and gladiatorial contest.
sleep perspective environmental
We are challenged to develop a world perspective. No individual can live alone, no nation can live alone, and anyone who feels that he can live alone is sleeping through a revolution. The world in which we live is geographically one.
christian materialism problem
You cannot solve the problem by turning to communism, for communism is based on an ethical relativism and a metaphysical materialism that no Christian can accept.
and-love nonviolence
We must follow nonviolence and love.
