"Take it upon yourself where you live..." - Quote by Nelson Mandela

“For me, nonviolence was not a moral principle but a strategy; there is no moral goodness in using an ineffective weapon.”

“It is a grave error for any leader to be oversensitive in the face of criticism”

“There are many people who have worked just because they love the community in which they are in, without expecting any financial consideration.”

“Life becomes harder for us when we live for others, but it also becomes richer and happier.”

“Some people wonder all their lives if they've made a difference. The Marines don't have that problem.”

“The surest way to bring goodness to yourself is to make it your intention to do good for somebody else.”

“Why should I be unhappy? Every parcel of my being is in full bloom.”

“Life has become immeasurably better since I have been forced to stop taking it seriously.”

“Praised be the fathomless universe, for life and joy, and for objects and knowledge curious.”
