While he was president of South Africa, he was also so much bigger than that. He fought for freedom and democracy. He fought for a more equal environment, and that is something the world will always need.
He rebelled against apartheid. He knew segregation of races was wrong. He fought, and after years in prison, he won.
His imprisonment sent a message out to the world. He changed the world.
I've collected some of my favorite quotes from Nelson Mandela. He was such a prominent figure in the history of the world and I have a huge amount of respect for him. Enjoy.
Though Nelson Mandela, has become a legend, he was just a person.
He had flesh and bones just like the rest of us.
What made him so special was the fact that he had a good heart. Mr. Mandela was full of good intentions. With that and perseverance, he changed the entire world,
So many people have good intentions, so perhaps if we all acted on them a little more we ourselves could changed the world. Keep that thought in mind each and every day.
Rest in peace, Nelson Mandela.
Until next time xxx.
