More quotes by Nelson Mandela
I have retired, but if there's anything that would kill me it is to wake up in the morning not knowing what to do.
Nelson Mandela
Our motto should be: let us make peace so that we can concentrate on the really important work that needs to be done. That is, alleviating the plight of the poor and the defenceless, for as long as most of humanity feels the pain of poverty we all remain prisoners.
Nelson Mandela
Sometimes it falls upon a generation to be great, you can be that generation
Nelson Mandela
The Church was as concerned with this world as the next: I saw that virtually all of the achievements of Africans seemed to have come about through the missionary work of the Church.
Nelson Mandela
Each of us, as citizens, has a role to play in creating a better world for our children
Nelson Mandela
I did not enjoy the violence of boxing so much as the science of it. I was intrigued by how one moved one's body to protect oneself, how one used a strategy both to attack and retreat, how one paced oneself over a match.
Nelson Mandela
No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.
Nelson Mandela
The day I am afraid to do, that is the day I am no longer fit to lead.
Nelson Mandela
I want to sleep for eternity with a broad smile on my face. I want those who remain behind to say this man has done his duty.
Nelson Mandela
A free press is one of the pillars of democracy.
Nelson Mandela
The most difficult matter is not so much to change the world as yourself.
Nelson Mandela
AIDS is our number one enemy. This enemy can be defeated. While the research for a cure continues, four principles -- love, support, acceptance and care for those affected -- can make us winners.
Nelson Mandela
I was called a terrorist yesterday, but when I came out of jail, many people embraced me, including my enemies, and that is what I normally tell other people who say those who are struggling for liberation in their country are terrorists.
Nelson Mandela
It only seems impossible until it's done.
Nelson Mandela
I was not born with a hunger to be free, I was born free.
Nelson Mandela
Che Guevara's life is an inspiration for every human being who loves freedom. We will always honor his memory.
Nelson Mandela
Strong convictions are the secret of surviving deprivation your spirit can be full even when your stomach is empty.
Nelson Mandela
The virtue and the strength of UWC is that it provides small, but powerful cells of innovation, catalysts for change, breaking barriers of habit and opening broader vistas of experience for both pupils and educationalists.
Nelson Mandela
No power on this earth can destroy the thirst for human dignity
Nelson Mandela
I detest racialism, because I regard it as a barbaric thing, whether it comes from a black man or a white man.
Nelson Mandela
