“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 (1918-2013)
The world mourns the loss of a great human being. But Mandela’s words–and his message–they’re here for good. They have changed our world, and they’ll continue to change the future.
We particularly love this moving speech given after his release from prison.
