I believe that even amid today's mortar bursts and whining bullets, there is still hope for a brighter tomorrow. I believe
that wounded justice, lying prostrate on the blood-flowing
streets of our nations, can be lifted from this dust of
shame to reign supreme among the children of men. I have
the audacity to believe that peoples everywhere can have
three meals a day for their bodies, education and culture
for their minds, and dignity, equality and freedom for their
spirits. I believe that what self-centered men have torn
down men other-centered can build up.
- Martin Luther King Jr., Nobel Prize acceptance speech,
1964
