A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual death.
There is nothing except a tragic death wish to prevent us from reordering our priorities so that the pursuit of peace will take precedence over the pursuit of war.
History is cluttered with the wreckage of nations and individuals that pursuedthis self-defeating path of hate.
We are now faced with the fact, my friends, that tomorrow is today.
We are confronted with the fierce urgency of now.
Over the bleached bones and jumbled residues of numerous civilizations are written the pathetic words, “Too late.”
We still have a choice today: nonviolent coexistence or violent coannihilation.
We must move past indecision to action.
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr Beyond Vietnam
April 4, 1967, Riverside Church, New York City

Each of us has to ask the question, 'Is there anything we can do to open the door of our heart and accept the other person. How large is our heart?'
