You are never strong enough that you don't need help.

We are confident. We have ourselves. We know how to sacrifice. We know how to work. We know how to combat the forces that oppose us. But even more than that, we are true believers in the whole idea of justice. Justice is so much on our side, that that is going to see us through.

Money is not going to organize the disadvantaged, the powerless, or the poor. We need other weapons. That's why the War on Poverty is such a miserable failure. You put out a big pot of money and all you do is fight over it. Then you run out of money and you run out of troops.

There's no reason to be non-violent. There's no challenge unless you are living for people.

Non-violence is not inaction. It is not discussion. It is not for the timid or weak... Non-violence is hard work.

When the man who feeds the world by toiling in the fields is himself deprived of the basic rights of feeding, sheltering, and caring for his own family, the whole community of man is sick.

We are certain God's will is that all men share in the good things this earth produces.
