More by Nelson Mandela
“I knew as well as I knew anything that the oppressor must be liberated just as surely as the oppressed.”
“No one truly knows a nation until one has been inside its jails. A nation should not be judged by how it treats its highest citizens but its lowest ones.”
“Young people are capable, when aroused, of bringing down the towers of oppression and raising the banners of freedom.”
More on Forgiveness
“My soul is too glad and too great to be at heart the enemy of any man”
“One always begins to forgive a place as soon as it's left behind.”
“Forgiveness means that you fill yourself with love and you radiate that love outward and refuse to hang onto the venom or hatred that was engendered by the behaviors that caused the wounds.”
More on Memory
“Even the death of Friends will inspire us as much as their lives. They will leave consolation to the mourners, as the rich leave money to defray the expenses of their funerals, and their memories will be incrusted over with sublime and pleasing thoughts, as monuments of other men are overgrown with moss; for our Friends have no place in the graveyard.”
“They'll never be able to forget us.”
“The biggest thing in today's sorrow is the memory of yesterday's joy.”
