We Must Understand That The Highest Form

I Am Convinced That The Truest Act Of Courage, The Strongest Act Of Manliness, Is To Sacrifice Ourselves For Others In A Totally Nonviolent Struggle For Justice. To Be A Man Is To Suffer For Others. God Help Us To Be Men!

I Have Met Many, Many Farm Workers And Friends Who Love Justice And Who Are Willing To Sacrifice For What Is Right. They Have A Quality About Them That Reminds Me Of The Beatitudes. They Are Living Examples That Jesus' Promise Is True: They Have Ben Hungry And Thirsty For Righteousness And They Have Been Satisfied. They Are Determined, Patient People Who Believe In Life And Who Give Strength To Others. They Have Given Me More Love And Hope And Strength Than They Will Ever Know.

When We Are Really Honest With Ourselves We Must Admit That Our Lives Are All That Really Belong To Us, So It Is How We Use Our Lives That Determines What Kind Of Men We Are. It Is My Deepest Belief That Only By Giving Life Do We Find Life, That The Truest Act Courage, The Strongest Act Of Manliness Is To Sacrifice Ourselves For Others In A Totally Non-violent Struggle For Justice. To Be A Man Is To Suffer For Others, God Help Us To Be Men.

We Shall Strike. We Shall Organize Boycotts. We Shall Demonstrate And Have Political Campaigns. We Shall Pursue The Revolution We Have Proposed. We Are Sons And Daughters Of The Farm Workers' Revolution, A Revolution Of The Poor Seeking Bread And Justice.

We're Going To Pray A Lot And Picket A Lot.
