And then you meet one person and your life changes forever

I meant to behave but there were too many other options

Press Freedom will never be under threat in South Africa for as long as the ANC is the majority party (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
Che Guevara’s life is an inspiration for every human being who loves freedom. We will always honor his memory (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
The world has lost a visionary leader, a courageous voice for justice, and a clear moral compass. By showing us that the path to freedom and human dignity lies in love, wisdom and compassion for one another, Nelson Mandela stands as an inspiration to us all (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
A lot of controversy over this possible invasion of Iraq. In fact, Nelson Mandela was so upset, he called Bush’s dad. How embarrassing, when world leaders start calling your father (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
I think the most moving part of my trip [to Africa] so far was seeing 92-year-old Nelson Mandela, and just thinking about his life. This man has lived through a struggle that few nations have known (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
Apartheid is a crime against humanity. Israel has deprived millions of Palestinians of their liberty and property. It has perpetuated a system of gross racial discrimination and inequality. It has systematically incarcerated and tortured thousands of Palestinians, contrary to the rules of international law. It has, in particular, waged a war against a civilian population, in particular children (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
The so-called ‘Palestinian autonomous areas’ are bantustans. These are restricted entities within the power structure of the Israeli apartheid system (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
Ethiopia always has a special place in my imagination and the prospect of visiting Ethiopia attracted me more strongly than a trip to France, England, and America combined. I felt I would be visiting my own genesis, unearthing the roots of what made me an African (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
The Children’s Hospital will be a credible demonstration of the commitment of African leaders to place the rights of children at the forefront. Nothing less would be enough (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
South Africa is the most beautiful place on earth. Admittedly, I am biased but when you combine the natural beauty... and the fact that the region is a haven for Africa’s most splendid wildlife... Then I think that we have been blessed with a truly wonderful land (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
Very sad to hear about the passing of Nelson Mandela. He was a true inspiration for human rights and equality for South Africa and the reason apartheid no longer exists there. The world will never forget his capacity for forgiveness and magnanimity. RIP (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
When you are behind bars with no hope of release, you need to find strength wherever you can. Personally, I found strength in Michael Jackson (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
Greece is the mother of democracy and South Africa is its youngest daughter (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
That day, Miss Mdingane told me that my new name was Nelson. Why she bestowed this particular name upon me I have no idea. Perhaps it had something to do with the great British sea captain Lord Nelson, but that would be only a guess (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
The time comes in the life of any nation when there remain only two choices - submit or fight. That time has now come to South Africa. We shall not submit and we have no choice but to hit back by all means in our power in defence of our people, our future, and our freedom (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
Even behind prison walls I can see the heavy clouds and the blue sky over the horizon (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
What made Nelson Mandela great, was precisely what made him human. We saw in him, what we seek in ourselves (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
Gandhi rejects the Adam Smith notion of human nature as motivated by self-interest and brute needs and returns us to our spiritual dimension with its impulses for nonviolence, justice and equality. He exposes the fallacy of the claim that everyone can be rich and successful provided they work hard. He points to the millions who work themselves to the bone and still remain hungry (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
Sport has the power to inspire and unite people. In Africa, soccer enjoys great popularity and has a particular place in the hearts of people (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
We can build a society grounded on friendship and our common humanity - a society founded on tolerance. That is the only road open to us (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
As Nelson Mandela has pointed out, boycott is not a principle, it is a tactic depending upon circumstances. A tactic which allows people, as distinct from their elected but often craven governments, to apply a certain pressure on those wielding power in what they, the boycotters, consider to be an unjust or immoral way (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
I have been working for Africans since I was 18, when I got involved with the Nelson Mandela concerts. I got involved with debt cancellation because Desmond Tutu demanded that the world respond to that situation (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
One individual can begin a movement that turns the tide of history. Martin Luther King in the civil rights movement, Mohandas Ganhi in India, Nelson Mandela in South Africa are examples of people standing up with courage and non-violence to bring about needed changes (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
Both Bush as well as Tony Blair are undermining an idea [the United Nations]. Is this because the secretary general of the United Nations [Ghanaian Kofi Annan] is now a black man? They never did that when secretary generals were white (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
I’m inspired by people like Nelson Mandela. Can you imagine - you know how racist America was back then - imagine how racism was in South Africa when he had to stand up and say what he had to say. That’s bravery beyond comprehension (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
I used to do my Nelson Mandela voice to blag restaurant tables in Cape Town. It rarely worked. Now what a great city that is (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
Even here in America, we felt the cool, refreshing breeze of freedom when Nelson Mandela took the seat of Presidency in his country where formerly he was not even allowed to vote. We were enlarged by tears of pride as we saw Nelson Mandela’s former prison guards invited, courteously, by him to watch from the front rows his inauguration (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
At the end of our lives, we will not be judged by the highest public office we attained in our lifetime, if that were true the current president (George W. Bush) would hold as much esteem as Franklin Roosevelt in our country, and Nelson Mandela in his. That cannot be the case. Rather, we will each be judged by the mark we’ve left on others (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
History will surely judge us harshly if we do not respond with all the energy and resources that we can bring to bear in the fight against HIV/AIDS (Nelson Mandela Quotes)
