Now, we got to get this thing right. What is needed is a realization that power without love is reckless and abusive, and that love without power is sentimental and anemic. Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice, and justice at its best is love correcting everything that stands against love. And this is what we must see as we move on.
[Martin Luther King, 16th August 1967, Convention of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference]
Love is power.
