    Well, here's one that should be pretty easy for 'Polytubbies:

    To fight and conquer in all your battles is not supreme excellence; supreme excellence consists in breaking the enemy's resistance without fighting.

          Every difference of opinion is not a difference of principle. We have called by different names brethren of the same principle.

              Yeah, it sounds like Dr. King.

                Belatedly: Bravo, Spiffor!

                and, yes, everyone should read The Plague.

                Now back to the game...

                  I've read The Plague when I was 17. I had completely forgot about the quote. However, I remember the great thing about the book: how a plague is ravaging a modern city, and all that can be done is the methodical organization of death, of corpse-disposal, and of the very limited plague-care.

                  It was impressive to see the human organizational genius managing death in this way, yet without really trying to cure it.

                    hints -
                    1. Its not Dr King.

                    2. It IS an American.

                    3. Its someone strongly commited to rational discussions of differing opinions

                    4. That you guys guessed MLK is both natural, after a fashion, and yet at some levels deeply ironic

                      It is ironic.

                        Ben is correct.
