One
of the figures who inspired of my life has gone. Goodbye Mr. Mandela!.
To remember him, here is a few of Mr. Mandela messages :
"I have walked that long road to freedom, I have tried not to
falter; I have made missteps along the way. But I have discovered the secret
that after climbing a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills
to climb. I have taken a moment here to rest,
to steal a view of the glorious vista that surrounds me, to look back on the distance I have come. But I can rest only for a moment, for with freedom come responsibilities, and I daren't linger, for my long walk is not yet ended"
to steal a view of the glorious vista that surrounds me, to look back on the distance I have come. But I can rest only for a moment, for with freedom come responsibilities, and I daren't linger, for my long walk is not yet ended"
"I saw that it was not just my freedom that was curtailed, but
the freedom of everyone who looked like I did. That is when I joined the
African National Congress, and that is when the hunger for my own freedom
became the greater hunger for the freedom of my people"
