“Some mornings I walked out into the courtyard and every living thing there, the seagulls and wagtails, the small trees, and even the stray blades of grass seemed to smile and shine in the sun.

Nelson Mandela

“During my lifetime I have dedicated myself to this struggle of the African people. I have fought against white domination, and I have fought against black domination.

But if needs be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die.”

The society showed how disparate elements-- French, Islamic, and African-- can mingle to create a unique and distinctive culture.”

Nelson Mandela

“Tread softly, Brathe peacefully, Laugh hysterically.”
