Nelson Mandela

“It always seems impossible until it's done.”

“We forgive but not forgotten”

Nelson Mandela

“In another conversation I said, ‘Tell me the truth. When you were leaving prison after twenty-seven years and walking down that road to freedom, didn’t you hate them all over again?’ And he said, ‘Absolutely I did, because they’d imprisoned me for so long. I was abused. I didn’t get to see my children grow up. I lost my marriage and the best years of my life. I was angry. And I was afraid, because I had not been free in so long. But as I got closer to the car that would take me away, I realized that when I went through that gate, if I still hated them, they would still have me. I wanted to be free. And so I let it go.”

Nelson Mandela

“It is most unusual to return to a place that has changed in ways you yourself have altered.”

Nelson Mandela

“Man's goodness is a flame that can be hidden but never extinguished.”

Nelson Mandela

“Banning not only confines one physically, it imprisons one's spirit. it induces a kind of psychological claustrophobia that makes one yearn not only for freedom of movement but spiritual escape...This insidious effect of bans was that at a certain point one began to think that the opponent was not without but within.” 

Nelson Mandela

“Only mass education, he used to say, would free my people, arguing that an educated man could not be oppressed because he could think for himself.”

Nelson Mandela

“Communists have always played an active role in the fight by colonial countries for their freedom, because the short-term objects of Communism would always correspond with the long-term objects of freedom movements.” 

Nelson Mandela

“Don't Judge a person by his success stories, but only with how many times the person stood up, after falling down.”
