Violence never brings permanent peace. It solves no social problem: it merely creates new and more complicated ones.

Freedom only comes through persistent revolt, through persistent agitation, through persistently rising up against the system of evil.

Seeing is not always believing.

Human salvation lies in the hands of the creatively maladjusted.

Violence is immoral because it thrives on hatred rather than love. It destroys community and makes brotherhood impossible. It leaves society in monologue rather than dialogue. Violence ends by defeating itself. It creates bitterness in the survivors and brutality in the destroyers.

Before the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth, we were here. Before the pen of Jefferson etched across the pages of history the majestic words of the Declaration of Independence, we were here.

We must come to see with the distinguished jurist of yesterday that "justice too long delayed is justice denied."
