Quotes by Nelson Mandela

Nelson Mandela

[Gandhi] said, “I want to find God, and because I want to find God, I have to find God along with other people. I don’t believe I can find God alone.

It must enjoy the protection of the constitution, so that it can protect our rights as citizens.

A garden was one of the few thing in prison that one could control. To plant a seed, watch it grow, to tend it then harvest it, offered a simple but enduring satisfaction. The sense of being the custodian of this small patch of earth offered a taste of freedom.
