Power without love is reckless and abusive, and love without power is sentimental and anemic. Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice, and justice at its best is power correcting everything that stands against love. – Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
.. formerly, when I was a monk, I used to hope that I would be able to pacify my conscience with the fastings, the praying, and the vigils … But the more I sweat, the less quiet and peace I felt; for the true light had been removed from my eyes. – Martin Luther, Lectures on Genesis
