“Love is creative, understanding goodwill for all men. It is the refusal to defeat any individual. When you rise to the level of love, of its great beauty and power, you seek only to defeat evil systems. Individuals who happen to be caught up in that system, you love, but you seek to defeat the system.
— Martin Luther King Jr.
Martin Luther King, Jr., in "Loving Your Enemies" Dexter Avenue Baptist Church, Montgomery, Alabama, (17 November 1957)
