LadiesandGentlemen:

I'monlygoingtotalktoyoujustforaminuteorsothisevening,becauseIhavesomeverysadnewsforallofyou--Couldyoulowerthosesigns,please?

--Ihavesomeverysadnewsforallofyou,and,Ithink,sadnewsforallofourfellowcitizens,andpeoplewholovepeaceallovertheworld;andthatisthatMartinLutherKingwasshotandwaskilledtonightinMemphis,Tennessee.

MartinLutherKingdedicatedhislifetoloveandtojusticebetweenfellowhumanbeings.Hediedinthecauseofthateffort.Inthisdifficultday,inthisdifficulttimefortheUnitedStates,it'sperhapswelltoaskwhatkindofanationweareandwhatdirectionwewanttomovein.Forthoseofyouwhoareblack--consideringtheevidenceevidentlyisthattherewerewhitepeoplewhowereresponsible--youcanbefilledwithbitterness,andwithhatred,andadesireforrevenge.

Wecanmoveinthatdirectionasacountry,ingreaterpolarization--blackpeopleamongstblacks,andwhiteamongstwhites,filledwithhatredtowardoneanother.Orwecanmakeaneffort,asMartinLutherKingdid,tounderstand,andtocomprehend,andreplacethatviolence,thatstainofbloodshedthathasspreadacrossourland,withanefforttounderstand,compassionandlove.

Forthoseofyouwhoareblackandaretemptedtobefilledwithhatredandmistrustoftheinjusticeofsuchanact,againstallwhitepeople,IwouldonlysaythatIcanalsofeelinmyownheartthesamekindoffeeling.Ihadamemberofmyfamilykilled,buthewaskilledbyawhiteman.

ButwehavetomakeaneffortintheUnitedStates,wehavetomakeanefforttounderstand,togetbeyond,orgobeyondtheseratherdifficulttimes.

Myfavoritepoem,myfavoritepoetwasAeschylus.Andheoncewrote:

"Eveninoursleep,painwhichcannotforget

fallsdropbydropupontheheart,until,inourowndespair,

againstourwill,comeswisdom

throughtheawfulgraceofGod."

WhatweneedintheUnitedStatesisnotdivision;whatweneedintheUnitedStates

isnothatred;whatweneedintheUnitedStatesisnotviolenceandlawlessness,butisloveandwisdom,andcompassiontowardoneanother,andafeelingofjusticetowardthosewhostillsufferwithinourcountry,whethertheybewhiteorwhethertheybeblack.

SoIaskyoutonighttoreturnhome,tosayaprayerforthefamilyofMartinLutherKing--yeah,it'strue--butmoreimportantlytosayaprayerforourowncountry,

Wecandowellinthiscountry.Wewillhavedifficulttimes.We'vehaddifficulttimesinthepast.Andwewillhavedifficulttimesinthefuture.Itisnottheendofviolence;itisnottheendoflawlessness;andit'snottheendofdisorder.

Butthevastmajorityofwhitepeopleandthevastmajorityofblackpeopleinthiscountrywanttolivetogether,wanttoimprovethequalityofourlife,andwantjusticeforallhumanbeingsthatabideinourland.

LetusdedicateourselvestowhattheGreekswrotesomanyyearsago:
