Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase.

Hatred paralyzes life; love releases it.
Hatred confuses life; love harmonizes it.
Hatred darkens life; love illumines it.
- Martin Luther King Jr.

Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into friend.
-Martin Luther King, Jr.

We must develop and maintain the capacity to forgive.
He who is devoid of the power to forgive is devoid of the power to love.
