More quotes by Nelson Mandela
If you want to change the world, help the women.
Nelson Mandela
If there is a country that has committed unspeakable atrocities in the world, it is the United States of America. They don't care for human beings.... What I am condemning is that one power, with a president [George W. Bush] who has no foresight, who cannot think properly, is now wanting to plunge the world into a holocaust.
Nelson Mandela
Men come and men go, I have come and I will go when my time comes
Nelson Mandela
The United States has made serious mistakes in the conduct of its foreign affairs, which have had unfortunate repercussions long after the decisions were taken.
Nelson Mandela
A movement without vision would be a movement without moral foundation.
Nelson Mandela
There is nobody more dangerous than one who has been humiliated, even when you humiliate him rightly.
Nelson Mandela
If you are poor, you are not likely to live long.
Nelson Mandela
The people of Africa have learned the lessons of patience and endurance in their long struggle for freedom. In a cynical world we have become an inspiration to many. We signal that good can be achieved amongst human beings who are prepared to trust, prepared to belief in the goodness of people.
Nelson Mandela

Nelson Mandela
Safety and security don't just happen, they are the result of collective consensus and public investment. We owe our children, the most vulnerable citizens in our society, a life free of violence and fear.
Nelson Mandela
Even behind prison walls I can see the heavy clouds and the blue sky over the horizon
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
Let us not be tempted by those who try to find the unique qualities in a particular group. In this case, among South Africa indigenous people, it reflected what has been evidenced throughout the world.
Nelson Mandela
As long as poverty, injustice and gross inequality persist in our world, none of us can truly rest.
Nelson Mandela
In my country we go to prison first and then become President.
Nelson Mandela
Without language, one cannot talk to people and understand them one cannot share their hopes and aspirations, grasp their history, appreciate their poetry, or savor their songs.
Nelson Mandela
A political movement must keep in touch with reality and the prevailing conditions. Long speeches, the shaking of fists, the banging of tables, and strongly worded resolutions out of touch with the objective conditions do not bring about mass action and can do a great deal of harm to the organization and the struggle we serve.
