MLK Day Quote

I won't pretend that I saved this quote for MLK day. In fact, I was just planning to post it and didn't get around to it until today. Nevertheless, I do think that some interesting ideas can spring from this being an MLK day quote so here it is:

"He therefore who loves men, ought to love them either because they are righteous, or that they may become righteous. For so also ought he to love himself, either because he is righteous, or that he may become righeous; for in this way he loves his neighbor as himself without any risk. For he who loves himself otherwise, loves himself wrongfully, since he loves himself to this end that he may be unrighteous; therefore to this end that he may be wicked; and hence it follows next that he does not love himself for, 'He who loveth iniquity, hateth his own soul.'"
