We must nurture tolerance, collective wisdom, and democracy.

Nelson Mandela

We must work together to ensure the equitable distribution of wealth, opportunity and power in our society.

Nelson Mandela

We need to exert ourselves that much more, and break out of the vicious cycle of dependence imposed on us by the financially powerful: those in command of immense market power and those who dare to fashion the world in their own image.

Nelson Mandela

We now undertake that we cannot rest while millions of our people suffer the pain and indignity of poverty in all its forms.

Nelson Mandela

We owe our children – the most vulnerable citizens in any society – a life free from violence and fear.

Nelson Mandela

We pledge ourselves to liberate all our people from the continuing bondage of poverty, deprivation, suffering, gender and other discrimination.

Nelson Mandela

We raise our voices in holy gladness to celebrate the victory of the risen Christ over the terrible forces of death.

Nelson Mandela

We recall the joy and excitement of a nation that had found itself, the collective relief that we had stepped out of our restrictive past, and the expectant air of walking into a brighter future.

Nelson Mandela

We shall immunize every child in Africa to get rid of this terrible disease forever.

Nelson Mandela

We signal that good can be achieved amongst human beings who are prepared to trust, prepared to believe in the goodness of people.

Nelson Mandela
