Quote: Martin Luther King Jr. - Hate and Love

Today, I came across this quote from Martin Luther King, Jr. I don't know the context of the quote, it could be related to any of the major battles he went through for the people's rights.

"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."

- Martin Luther King, Jr

I'm not going to comment more than that on this quote. It's self-explanatory. You can't fight something hateful by hating it.

Change of mind. I'm going to comment further. It's not easy to not be hateful about some things that happens sometimes, respecting the non-hateful path alone can be hard. That's why you need to talk about hapiness to your close ones, if you remind them to be happy during their hateful moments, they'll do the same with you later.
