“As I walked out the door toward the gate that would
lead to my freedom, I knew if I didn’t leave my
bitterness and hatred behind, I’d still be in prison.” -
Nelson Mandela
27 years in prison. Willing to die for his cause. Fighting against an obvious evil - apartheid. He was a firebrand, a revolutionary willing to fight, and also a man of grace, strength, power. A humble man who walked out of prison to lead a country. Once free he embraced non-volience and reconciliation, and he brought a people together. An amazing, inspiring human being.
Mandela!
