It is not permissible for us to go on destroying the family life when we know that we are destroying it. - Alan Paton

I see only one hope for our country, and that is when white men and black men . . . desiring only the good of their country, come together to work for it. . . . 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.

Sorrow is better than fear. Fear is a journey,a terrible journey, but sorrow is at least an arrival. When the storm threatens, a man is afraid for his house. But when the house is destroyed, there is something to do. About a storm he can do nothing, but he can rebuild a house.

...there is only one thing that has power completely, and this is love. Because when a man loves, he seeks no power, and therefore he has power.
