“Appearances matter — and remember to smile.”

Nelson Mandela

“We do not want freedom without bread, nor do we want bread without freedom.

Nelson Mandela

“I do not deny, however, that I planned sabotage. I did not plan it in a spirit of recklessness nor because I have any love of violence. I planned it as a result of a calm and sober assessment of the political situation that had arisen after many years of tyranny, exploitation and oppression of my people by the Whites.”

Nelson Mandela

“But the hard facts were that fifty years of non-violence had brought the African people nothing but more and more repressive legislation, and fewer and fewer rights.”

Nelson Mandela

“He nodded for us to rise. I tried to catch his eye, but he was not even looking in our direction. His eyes were focused on the middle distance. His face was very pale, and he was breathing heavily. We looked at each other and seemed to know: it would be death, otherwise why was this normally calm man so nervous? And then he began to speak.”

Nelson Mandela

“all remained loyal to him, not because they always agreed with him, but because the regent listened to and respected different opinions.”

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

“Courage is not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it.”

Nelson Mandela

“un líder es como un pastor que permanece detrás del rebaño y permite que los más ágiles vayan por delante, tras lo cual, los demás les siguen sin darse cuenta de que en todo momento están siendo dirigidos desde detrás.”

Nelson Mandela

“To make peace with an enemy one must work with that enemy, and that enemy becomes one’s partner.”

Nelson Mandela

“Ich bin ein Optimist. Ob das angeboren oder anerzogen ist, kann ich nicht sagen. Zum optimistisch sein gehört, das Gesicht der Sonne zuzuwenden und immer vorwärts zu gehen. Es gab viele dunkle Stunden, in denen mein Glaube an das Gute auf eine fürchterliche Probe gestellt wurde, aber ich wollte und konnte ihn (mich) nicht aufgeben. Dann hat man verloren. (Und stirbt)”

Nelson Mandela

“No one i born hating another person because of the colour 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

“To be the father of a nation is a great honor, but to be the father of a family is a greater joy.”

Nelson Mandela

“The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.”

Nelson Mandela

“There can be no keener revelation of a society's soul than the way in which it treats its children.”
