One of the best of our kind, and when I mean "our" kind, I mean our human species. A man who has done more than could possibly be expected from any man or woman.

If any man deserves a loooooong rest, it's him.

Rest in peace sir, along with as much respect as I am capable of offering up.

And to the people of South Africa, I bow to your sorrow along with your celebration of a life that was more than just well lived........

Such a beautiful soul .... RIP Nelson Mandela

"No one is 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." - N.M.

A hero to millions that will live on for eternity. Have a nice slumber.


"I was made, by the law, a criminal, not because of what I had done, but because of what I stood for, because of what I thought, because of my conscience.” (Statement during trial, 1962)


“Difficulties break some men but make others.” (From a letter to wife, Winnie Mandela, from Robben Island, February 1975)


I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.
