If you can’t run, walk; if you can’t walk, crawl, but keep moving forward!

Now let us begin. Now let us rededicate ourselves to the long and bitter - but beautiful - struggle for a new world.

In the struggle for human rights and justice, Negros will make a mistake if they become bitter and indulge in hate campaigns.

The true neighbor will risk his position, his prestige, and even his life for the welfare of others.

Somebody must have sense enough to meet hate with love. Somebody must have sense enough to meet physical force with soul force. If we will but try this way, we will be able to change these conditions and yet at the same time win the hearts and souls of those who have kept these conditions alive a way as old as the insights of Jesus of Nazareth, as modern as the techniques of Mohandas K. Gandhi. There is another way.

Love is the only creative, redemptive, transforming power, in the universe.

The poor in our countries have been shut out of our minds and driven from the mainstream of our societies, because we have allowed them to become invisible.
