Nelson Mandela 1918-2013

To honor the passing of the great world statesman, Nelson Mandela here are five quotes of his:

1. Resentment is like drinking poison and then hoping it will kill your enemies.

2. I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.

3. A fundamental concern for others in our individual and community lives would go a long way in making the world the better place.

4. I like friends who have independent minds because they tend to make you see problems from all angles.

5) Real leaders must be ready to sacrifice all for the freedom of their people.
