Nelson Mandela

Let us stand together to make of our world a sustainable source for our future as humanity on this planet.

Nelson Mandela

Let’s recommit to work towards our common goal: A nation where all of us are winners, all of us have shelter, food and education.

Nelson Mandela

Like slavery and apartheid, poverty is not natural. It is man-made and it can be overcome and eradicated by the actions of human beings.

Nelson Mandela

Living isn’t just about doing for yourself, but what you do for others as well.

Nelson Mandela

Long speeches, the shaking of fists, the banging of tables and strongly worded resolutions out of touch with the objective conditions do not bring about mass action and can do a great deal of harm to the organisation and the struggle we serve.

Nelson Mandela

Losing a sense of time is an easy way to lose one’s grip and even one’s sanity.

Nelson Mandela

Love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.

Nelson Mandela

Many people in this country have paid the price before me and many will pay the price after me.

Nelson Mandela

Men have different capacities and react differently to stress. But the stronger ones raised up the weaker ones, and both became stronger in the process.

Nelson Mandela

Men, I think, are not capable of doing nothing, of saying nothing, of not reacting to injustice, of not protesting against oppression, of not striving for the good of society and the good life in the ways they see it.
