Love is the most durable power in the world

"I am convinced that love is the most durable power in the world. Far from being the pious injunction of a Utopian dreamer, love is an absolute necessity for the survival of our civilization. To return hate for hate does nothing but intensify the existence of evil in the universe. Someone must have sense enough to cut off the chain of hate and evil, and this can only be done through love."
--Martin Luther King, Jr.
