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.

SELF DEVELOPMENT ACROSS THE LIFE SPAN

Self-Development across the Life Span A. Developmental Changes in Self-Descriptions In this sense, we have been reviewing evidence applicable to the development of the I . We have yet to consider, however, the development of the ME. A focus on the ME would lead us to ask: How do people’s thoughts about themselves change with age? For example, do 6-year olds think of themselves differently than 16-year olds? Research in this area suggests the following developmental trends. 1. Early childhood (ages 2-6) Gender and age appear to be the first characteristics applied to the self. By age two, most children correctly identify themselves as a boy or a girl, although they may not be fully aware that gender is constant until several years later. At this age, children also tend to describe themselves in terms of concrete, observable characteristics (e.g., I have brown hair; I have an o...

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...
