And one day we must ask the question, "Why are there forty million poor people in America?" And when you begin to ask that question, you are raising questions about the economic system, about a broader distribution of wealth. When you ask that question, you begin to question the capitalistic economy.

One of these days I'm going to put my body where my mind is.

Those who love peace must learn to organize as effectively as those who love war.

Power properly understood is nothing but the ability to achieve purpose. It is the strength required to bring about social, political and economic change.

We must discover the power of love, the power, the redemptive power of love. And when we discover that we will be able to make of this old world a new world. We will be able to make men better. Love is the only way.

The arc of the moral universe is long but it bends toward justice.
