Martin Luther King

A bit of truth from Martin Luther King: Jr......"Love your enemies. Love has within it a redemptive power and this power eventually transforms individuals.

Just keep being friendly to that person. Just keep loving them, and they can’t stand it too long. Oh, they react in many ways in the beginning. They react with guilt feelings, and sometimes they’ll hate you a little more at that transition period, but just keep loving them. And by the power of your love they will break down under the load.

That’s love, you see. It is redemptive. There’s something about love that builds up and is creative. There is something about hate that tears down and is destructive. So love your enemies."

- Martin Luther King; Jr.
