Rev. John Dear speaking about Thich Nhat Hanh's visit with King:
"Dr. King was floored. You can read it in his speeches... and statements later saying he basically had never met anybody like Thich Nhat Hanh, such a gentle monk. And don't be fooled by Thich Nhat Hanh, because he was a person of steel. He was so solid. He was so strong and firm. And King recognized that immediately.
"And it's hard to unpack the impact that Thich Nhat Hanh had on the United States and in mobilizing... these great figures, to really speak out for an end to the War in Vietnam, beginning with Martin Luther King."

"By strengthening our compassion, we give fuel to our courage and determination."
"In the past, changing the self and changing the world were often regarded as separate endeavors and viewed in either-or terms. But in the story of the Great Turning, they are recognized as mutually reinforcing and essential to one another."
