I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. This is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality... I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word.
This is the way of peace: Overcome evil with good, falsehood with truth, and hatred with love.
I believe that in the end the truth will conquer.
Eternal truth, eternal righteousness, eternal love; these only can triumph, for these only can endure.
Truth is strong, and sometime or other will prevail.
Goodness, armed with power, is corrupted; and pure love without power is destroyed.
It is inevitable that some defeat will enter even the most victorious life. The human spirit is never finished when it is defeated... it is finished when it surrenders.
If any fall by the hand of violence, others will continue the blessed work.
All love is vanquished by a succeeding love.
Then I despair... I remember that all through history, the way of truth and love has always won. There have been murderers and tyrants, and for a time they can seem invincible. But in the end they always fall. Think of it always.
