Flash Mob Celebrates Mandela
A Soweto Gospel Choir in South Africa posed as employees and shoppers inside a local Woolworth’s, before breaking out into a surprise song in memory of Nelson Mandela. It was an emotional and fitting tribute to the man whose life the world is celebrating this week. Watch the video and enjoy some of Mandela’s most memorable quotes:
NELSON MANDELA’S GREATEST QUOTES:
“Difficulties break some men but make others. No axe is sharp enough to cut the soul of a sinner who keeps on trying, one armed with the hope that he will rise even in the end.”
“It always seems impossible until it’s done.”
“Real leaders must be ready to sacrifice all for the freedom of their people.”
“Everyone can rise above their circumstances and achieve success if they are dedicated to and passionate about what they do.”
“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.”
“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.”
“For to be free is not merely to cast off one’s chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.”
“Lead from the back — and let others believe they are in front.”
“Do not judge me by my successes, judge me by how many times I fell down and got back up again.”
“If I had my time over I would do the same again. So would any man who dares call himself a man.”

My recent post Sleeping Man Left Inside Locked Airplane
This is an excellent post and I loved all of the quotes. I hope young people stop relaxing off of what Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King, and other black men and women who have stood up and fought for their freedom and the freedom of their people. Nothing is done and complete. We have many more battles to win and these are not luxuries, they are basic rights and freedom like: equal educations, job opportunities, equal economic power. You can rest for your freedom and I so agree with him. I hope people do more than read the quotes and instead take action. Action makes changesbut reading and admiring comments does nothing.
I meant to say you can not rest for your freedom.
