"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 after 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 have come. But I can only rest for a moment, for with freedom come responsibilities, and I dare not linger, for my long walk is not ended."

RIP
 
Sad news. A monumental figure of our times is gone.

R.I.P. Mr Mandela.
 
No shackles or cells can match the strength of the human spirit...sleep well, Madiba
 
Achieved some great things and is an inspiration to so many people.
Lived a hard life but can be at peace now. RIP Madiba
 
30 years in prison for his ideals. After that president of his country. 95 years of dignity. In my honest opinion one of the greatest persons that ever lived.
RIP big man.
 
RIP Nelson.

Nelson's first words when released from prison.
"Does Walter Kidd still play for Hertz?"
 
Have a long and peaceful sleep Madiba. You strived for change, broke the law, then MADE the law. Night Night.

Tears of defiance only here......
 
Guess thats the next hollywood movie then. And I still want them to make one of Black Aggie!
 
The ANC is a typical terrorist organisation ... Anyone who thinks it is going to run the government in South Africa is living in cloud-cuckoo land' - Margaret Thatcher, 1987

Rest in Peace Madiba - a true great.
 
Stomach churning some of the tributes from folk that campaigned for his continuing imprisonment.

A Great man. RIP.
 
20 odd years in prison and they couldn't break his spirit or ideals. A hero of mine and a sad day. RIP
 
RIP. A life well lived. I hope the nation he has left behind can adhere to his vision.
