Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Hate multiplies hate, violence multiplies violence, and toughness multiplies toughness in a descending spiral of destruction....The chain reaction of evil--hate begetting hate, wars producing more wars--must be broken, or we shall be plunged into the dark abyss of annihilation. Martin Luther King, Jr., Strength To Love, 1963.

And what does the LORD require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy
and to walk humbly with your God. Micah 6:8

Thanks for sharing the quote and reminder of what the world lost that day 40 years ago. I do remember it and was very saddened by it. I often wonder what the world would be like if Dr. King would have lived!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
