Cry, the Beloved Country

I'm working on materials to go with this book for my business and thought I'd post what I considered a powerful quote:
But there is only one thing that has power completely, and that is love. Because when a man loves, he seeks no power, and therefore he has power. I see only one hope for our country, and that is when white men and black men, desiring neither power nor money, but desiring only the good of their country, come together to work for it.

He was grave and silent, and then he said somberly, I have one great fear in my heart, that one day when they are turned to loving, they will find we are turned to hating.

Thanks for this great quote Julie. It reminds me about our debt to love.
