Martin Luther King, Jr. & Thích Nhất Hạnh: Transforming Hatred and Fear

Everyone knows that peace
has to begin with oneself,
but not many people
know how to do it.
 
Hatred and fear blind us.
We no longer see each other.
We only see the faces of monsters,
and that gives us the courage to
destroy each other.
 
Darkness cannot drive out darkness,
only light can do that.
Hate cannot drive our hate;
only love can do that.

Martin Luther King, Jr. & Thích Nhất Hạnh
