Other quotes by Nelson Mandela

A good leader can engage in a debate frankly and thoroughly, knowing that at the end he and the other side must be closer, and thus emerge stronger. You don't have that idea when you are arrogant, superficial, and uninformed.

I stand here before you not as a prophet, but as a humble servant of you, the people.

It always seems impossible until its done.

If there is a country that has committed unspeakable atrocities in the world, it is the United States of America.

If there are dreams about a beautiful South Africa, there are also roads that lead to their goal. Two of these roads could be named Goodness and Forgiveness.
