Nelson Mandela's Sayings



No one is born hating another person because of the color 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 its opposite.

Any man or institution that tries to rob me of my dignity will lose.

I have walked that long road to freedom. I have tried not to falter, I have made missteps along the way but I have discovered the secret that climbing a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb. I have taken a moment here to rest, to steal a view of the glorious vista that surrounds me, to look back on the distance I came. and I dare not to linger for my long walk is not ended.

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 the fears.

If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart.

Why is it that in this courtroom I  am facing a white magistrate confronted by a white prosecutor, escorted by white orderlies? Can anybody honestly and seriously suggest that in this type of atmosphere the scales of justice are evenly balanced? why is it that no African in the history of this country has ever had the honor of being tried by his own flesh and blood?

Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.

When a man is denied the right to live the life he believes in, he has no choice but to become an outlaw.

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.

A good head and good heart are always a formidable combination. But when you add to that a literate tongue or pen, then you have something very special.

Best Developmental Quotes

Quotes are just words; action is yours.  A man in the glass The real risk lies in riskless living.    Some of life’s best pleasures are its simplest ones. Enrich your life with more of them and your heart will be happy.  Peter Drucker, the management expert, said it so well: “There is nothing so useless as doing efficiently that which should not be done at all.”  Ordinary people don’t spend much time on the extra mile.

Vision of Community

Community visioning Many communities begin their visioning project by determining the vision or desired future. Others look at where the community currently finds itself before identifying the desired future. Both approaches have produced quality results in visioning projects around the country.  However, starting with the vision statement is preferred because it sets a positive tone for the process from the very start. This process convenes residents holding very diverse perspectives who come into the process with personal agendas.  By starting the process with the development of visual themes, participants recognize early on that despite the different views, there are many areas on which they all agree. Experiencing such a “win” early on in the process sets the tone for participants to work toward agreement throughout the process . A vision is a “stretch”   In spring 1961, President John F. Kennedy, seeking increased funding for space explorati...
