Our destiny is tied up with the destiny of America.

Returning hate for hate multiplies hate.

The Christian faith makes it possible for us nobly to accept that which cannot be changed, and to meet disappointments and sorrow with an inner poise, and to absorb the most intense pain without abandoning our sense of hope.

Love is creative and redemptive. Love builds up and unites; hate tears down and destroys. The aftermath of the ‘fight with fire’ method...is bitterness and chaos, the aftermath of the love method is reconciliation and creation of the beloved community...Yes , love-which means understanding, creative, redemptive goodwill, even for one’s enemies-is the solution

Love is somehow the key that unlocks the door which leads to ultimate reality.

Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or in the darkness of destructive selfishness.

Capital punishment is against the best judgment of modern criminology and, above all, against the highest expression of love in the nature of God.
