In commemoration of the South African revolutionary’s birthday on 18 July, here are some of his wise words that teach us how to live life:
- “Man’s goodness is a flame that can be hidden but never extinguished”
- “Let there be justice for all. Let there be peace for all. Let there be work, bread, water and salt for all. Let each know that for each the body, the mind and the soul have been freed to fulfil themselves.”
- “After climbing a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb.”
- “There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered.”
- “No one is born hating another person because of the colour of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than it’s opposite.”
- “A good head and a good heart are always a formidable combination.”
- “If you want to make peace with your enemy, you have to work with your enemy. Then he becomes your partner.”
- “It always seems impossible until its done.”
- “It is better to lead from behind and to put others in front, especially when you celebrate victory when nice things occur. You take the front line when there is danger. Then people will appreciate your leadership.”
- “Let freedom reign. The sun never set on so glorious a human achievement.”
- “Freedom would be meaningless without security in the home and in the streets.”
