"One day we will have to stand before the God of history and we will talk in terms of things we've done.
Yes, we will be able to say we built gargantuan bridges to span the seas, we built gigantic buildings to kiss the skies.
Yes, we made our submarines to penetrate oceanic depths.
We brought into being many other things with our scientific and technological power.
It seems that I can hear the God of history saying:
'That was not enough!
But I was hungry, and ye fed me not.
I was naked, and ye clothed me not.
I was devoid of a decent sanitary house to live in,
and ye provided no shelter for me.
And consequently,
you cannot enter the kingdom of greatness.
If ye do it unto the least of these,
my brethren, ye do it unto me.'
That's the question facing America today."
-Martin Luther King Jr.
Remaining Awake Through a Great Revolution
Delivered at the National Cathedral, Washington, D.C., on March 31, 1968
