And then I got into Memphis and some began to talk about the threats of what would happen to me from some of our sick white brothers. But I don\u2019t know what will happen now. We\u2019ve got some difficult days ahead. But it really doesn\u2019t matter with me now. Because I\u2019ve been to the mountain-top and I don\u2019t mind. Like anybody, I would like to live a long life, longevity has its place, but I\u2019m not concerned about that now. I just want to do God\u2019s will, and he\u2019s allowed me to go up to the mountain. And I\u2019ve looked over and I\u2019ve seen the Promised Land. I may not get there with you, but I want you to know tonight that we as a people will get to the Promised Land. So I\u2019m happy tonight. I\u2019m not fearing any man. Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord.<\/p>\n

We must come to see that the end we seek is a society at peace with itself, a society that can live with its conscience. That will be a day not of the white man, not of the black man. That will be the day of man as man.<\/p>\n
