There are not enough tears for the sorrow that we bear as a nation

As life sometimes seems to become more and more meaningless each day

for some days we seem to walk within the shadows of evil's temptations

We let fear get the best of us

We have let hatred control us

We let the past force us into an empty space that if we don't escape in due time

We will only be forced to stay

There is no passion to be found in playing small..

in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living

They say If you talk to a man in a language that he understands it surely goes to his head.

But if you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart.

If you want to make peace with your enemy, you have to work with your enemy.

Then he becomes your partner, you two become one

It always seems impossible in some way until it is done.

But we should realize that impossibility is impossible

For after climbing a great hill,

one only finds that there are many more hills to climb and in the end the view looks great

But Never, never and never again shall it be that...

this beautiful land will again experience the oppression of one by another

I detest racialism, because I regard it as a barbaric thing, whether it comes from a black man or a white man.

Cause I've realized that money won't create success, the freedom to make it will

Let freedom reign!

The sun never sets on so glorious a human achievement.

I dream of an Africa which is in peace with itself.

For your worth as a person is not determined by the color of your skin

But only by your character

To be free is not merely to cast off one's chains

Or past pains

but only to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others

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.

And still, so the struggle continues

The long walk to freedom
