More quotes by Nelson Mandela
South Africans have no concept of time and this is also why we can't solve poverty and social problems… It's now 10 years since the fall of the Apartheid government and we cannot blame Apartheid for being tardy.
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 important to not be hostile to what a greater part of society has embraced, whether as Christians, Hindus or Muslims. It is important to respect that because whether you believe or not in the existence of a superior being, humanity does believe in that.
Nelson Mandela
In my younger days, I was arrogant - jail helped me to get rid of it. I did nothing but make enemies because of my arrogance.
Nelson Mandela
Resentment is like drinking poison and then hoping it will kill your enemies.
Nelson Mandela
Abject poverty is demeaning, is an assault on the dignity of those that suffer it. In the end it demeans us all. It makes the freedom of all of us less meaningful.
Nelson Mandela
After climbing a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb. I can rest only for a moment, for with freedom come responsibilities, and I dare not linger, for my long walk is not yet ended.
Nelson Mandela

Nelson Mandela
There's no such thing as part freedom.
Nelson Mandela
It's not our weaknesses that frighten us. It's our strengths.
Nelson Mandela

Nelson Mandela

Nelson Mandela

Nelson Mandela
It is wise to persuade people to do things and make them think it was their own idea.
Nelson Mandela
It is what we make out of what we have, not what we are given, that separates one person from another.
Nelson Mandela
We can't fight AIDS unless we do much more to fight TB as well.
Nelson Mandela
As we judge others so are we judged by others. The suspicious will always be tormented by suspicion.
Nelson Mandela
I discovered even before I went to jail that apartheid was not run by people who were monolithic in their approach. Some of them didn't even believe in apartheid.
Nelson Mandela
It is not the kings and generals that make history, but the masses of the people.
Nelson Mandela
An educated, enlightened & informed population is one of the surest ways of promoting the health of a democracy
