"As
you press on for justice, be sure to move with
dignity and discipline, using only the weapon
of love. Let no man pull you so low as to hate
him. Always avoid violence. If you succumb to
the temptation of using violence in your struggle,
unborn generations will be the recipients of a
long and desolate night of bitterness, and your
chief legacy to the future will be an endless
reign of meaningless chaos."
Martin Luther
King, Jr.
Excerpted from
"The Most Durable Power",
