Martin Luther King, Jr., in his book, STRENGTH TO LOVE...used a Pauline like style to write a letter to America. He concludes his letter after admonishing America with love:
..."love is the most durable power in the world."
..."the highest good is love."
..."the greatest of all virtue is love."
..."you [may] have all knowledge, and you may boast of your great institutions of learning and the boundless extent of your degrees; but, devoid of love, all of these mean absolutely nothing."
..."Without love, benevolence becomes egotism and martyrdom becomes spiritual pride."
..."You are challenged to follow the way of love. You will then discover that unarmed love is the most powerful force in all the world."
(page 152, 153)
