More quotes by Nelson Mandela
There can be no keener revelation of a society's soul than the way in which it treats its children.
Nelson Mandela
There are many people who feel that it is useless and futile to continue talking about peace and non-violence against a government whose only reply is savage attacks on an unarmed and defenceless people.
Nelson Mandela
In the end, reconciliation is a spiritual process, which requires more than just a legal framework. It has to happen in the hearts and minds of people.
Nelson Mandela
The time will come when our nation will honour the memory of all the sons, the daughters, the mothers, the fathers, the youth and the children who, by their thoughts and deeds, gave us the right to assert with pride that we are South Africans, that we are Africans, and that we are citizens of the world.
Nelson Mandela
Leaders in all spheres who are living with HIV should be encouraged, not coerced, to lead by example and disclose their HIV status.
Nelson Mandela
It's in your hands to make the world a better place.
Nelson Mandela
A new world will be won not by those who stand at a distance with their arms folded, but by those who are in the arena, whose garments are torn by storms and whose bodies are maimed in the course of the contest.
Nelson Mandela
If our expectations, if our fondest prayers and dreams, are not realized then we should all bear in mind that the greatest glory of living lies not in never falling but in rising every time you fall.
Nelson Mandela
I really wanted to retire and rest and spend more time with my children, my grandchildren and of course with my wife.
Nelson Mandela
It is not the kings and generals that make history, but the masses of the people.
Nelson Mandela
If you want to change the world, help the women.
Nelson Mandela
It is also the fate of leadership to be misunderstood. It is a grave error for any leader to be oversensitive in the face of criticism, to conduct discussions as if he or she is a schoolmaster talking to less informed and inexperienced learners.
Nelson Mandela
I dream of an Africa which is in peace with itself.
Nelson Mandela
AIDS is no longer just a disease, it is a human rights issue.
Nelson Mandela
I never think of the time I have lost. I just carry out a programme because it's there. It's mapped out for me.
Nelson Mandela
An educated, enlightened & informed population is one of the surest ways of promoting the health of a democracy
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
To truly lead one's people, one must also truly know them.
Nelson Mandela
We know what needs to be done - all that is missing is the will to do it.
Nelson Mandela
There is an absence of democratic accountability and control in every sphere of government and the state. To address this debilitating legacy requires determined action and a deep commitment to transforming our society from a crisis ridden present into something all South Africans can be truly proud of.
Nelson Mandela
