“Some mornings I walked out into the courtyard and every living thing there, the seagulls and wagtails, the small trees, and even the stray blades of grass seemed to smile and shine in the sun. It was at such times, when I perceived the beauty of even this small, closed-in corner of the world, that I knew that some day my people and I would be free.”
― Nelson Mandela, Long Walk To Freedom

“Do not judge me by my successes, judge me by how many times I fell down and got back up again.”
― Nelson Mandela

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.”
― Nelson Mandela , A Long Walk to Freedom: 1918-1962: Early Years, 1918-1962 v. 1

“ As we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.”
― Nelson Mandela
