"The Western arrogance of feeling that it has everything to teach others and
nothing to learn from them is not just. A true revolution of values
will lay a hand on the world order and say of war,
'This way of settling differences is not just.' ...
A nation that continues year after year to spend more money
on military defense than on programs of social uplift
is approaching spiritual death."
― Martin Luther King, Jr.,
