Let it never be said by future generations that indifference, cynicism or selfishness made us fail to live up to the ideals of humanism which the Nobel Peace Prize encapsulates. Let the strivings of us all, prove Martin Luther King Jr. to have been correct, when he said that humanity can no longer be tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war.

A new world will be won not b...

A new world will be won not by those who stand at a distance with their arms folded, but by those who are in the arena, whose garments are torn by storms and whose bodies are maimed in the course of the contest.

Nelson Mandela 689 quotes

I discovered even before I we...

I discovered even before I went to jail that apartheid was not run by people who were monolithic in their approach. Some of them didn't even believe in apartheid.

Nelson Mandela 689 quotes

We have laid the foundation f...

We have laid the foundation for a better life. Things that were unimaginable a few years ago have become everyday reality. I belong to the generation of leaders for whom the achievement of democracy was the defining challenge.

Nelson Mandela 689 quotes

We recall our terrible past s...

We recall our terrible past so that we can deal with it, to forgive where forgiveness is necessary, without forgetting; to ensure that never again will such inhumanity tear us apart; and to move ourselves to eradicate a legacy that lurks dangerously as a threat to our democracy.

Nelson Mandela 689 quotes

I hate race discrimination most intensely and in all its manifestations. I have fought it all during my life; I fight it now, and will do so until the end of my days.

Nelson Mandela 689 quotes

The death sentence is a barbaric act . . . It is a reflection of the animal instinct still in human beings.

Nelson Mandela 689 quotes

I never think of the time I have lost. I just carry out a programme because it's there. It's mapped out for me.

Nelson Mandela 689 quotes

Freedom alone is not enough w...

Freedom alone is not enough without light to read at night, without time or access to water to irrigate your farm, without the ability to catch fish to feed your family.

Nelson Mandela 689 quotes

Sport can create hope, where once there was only despair. It is more powerful than governments in breaking down racial barriers.

Nelson Mandela 689 quotes

Sometimes, I feel like one who is on the sidelines, who has missed life itself.

Nelson Mandela 689 quotes

There are many people who feel...

There are many people who feel that it is useless and futile to continue talking about peace and non-violence against a government whose only reply is savage attacks on an unarmed and defenceless people.

Nelson Mandela 689 quotes

Nonviolence is a good policy when the conditions permit.

Nelson Mandela 689 quotes

A good leader can engage in a ...

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.

Nelson Mandela 689 quotes

Our human compassion binds us ...

Our human compassion binds us the one to the other - not in pity or patronizingly, but as human beings who have learnt how to turn our common suffering into hope for the future.

Nelson Mandela 689 quotes

Courageous people do not fear ...

Courageous people do not fear forgiving, for the sake of peace.

Nelson Mandela 689 quotes

I started to make a study of the art of war and revolution and, whilst abroad, underwent a course in military training. If there was to be guerrilla warfare, I wanted to be able to stand and fight with my people and to share the hazards of war with them.

I am confident that nobody... will accuse me of selfishness if I ask to spend time, while I am still in good health, with my family, my friends and also with myself.

Nelson Mandela 689 quotes

Our single most important challenge is therefore to help establish a social order in which the freedom of the individual will truly mean the freedom of the individual.

Nelson Mandela 689 quotes

There is nothing I fear more t...

There is nothing I fear more than waking up without a program that will help me bring a little happiness to those with no resources, those who are poor, illiterate, and ridden with terminal disease.
