True peace

True peace is not merely the absence of tension: it is the presence of justice.

Quoted in Let the Trumpet Sound: A Life of Martin Luther King, Jr. by Stephen B. Oates, 1982

I have a dream: white and black

I have a dream that one day, down in Alabama, with its vicious racists, with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of 'interposition' and 'nullification' — one day right there in Alabama little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers.

Free at last

And when this happens, when we allow freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual:
'Free at last! Free at last!
Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!'*
*from American Negro Songs
