A few words from Nelson Mandela 1918 - 2013
“It is never my custom to use words lightly. If twenty-seven years in
prison have done anything to us, it was to use the silence of
solitude to make us understand how precious words are and how real
speech is in its impact on the way people live and die.” (South
Africa, July 14, 2000)
“Real
leaders must be ready to sacrifice all for the freedom of their
people.” (Kwazulu-Natal, South Africa, April 25, 1998)
“I
can rest only for a moment, for with freedom come responsibilities,
and I dare not linger, for my long walk is not yet ended.” (From
Long Walk to Freedom, 1995)
