“The world says farewell to a great man”
“Nelson Mandela was not an ideologue; he was far more than that. He was an example. No other person was such an unbelievable example of forgiveness. He was imprisoned, he was alone but he never lost hope, never doubted that a day would come when people would again become one united human race.” -PRESIDENT SHIMON PERES

The world says farewell to a great man.
Nelson Mandela was an example to us all. In each of resides a small Mandela. In each of us there is a force of forgiveness and hope that rejects discrimination and hate.”
