A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual doom.

About This Quote

Martin Luther King lived a life of service to others, a life of giving. He was a man who truly lived his life the way he spoke and what he said was “a nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual doom.” It’s the same with you and me. We need to stop wasting our time and energy on things that don’t matter. Time spent doing things that don’t help anyone is time wasted. If we want to live a meaningful life, then we should focus our time and energy on things that do make a difference in people’s lives.
