Anna Begins Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 I always thought the quote "Be the change you wish to see in the world" by Gandhi reflected Mandela well. RIP. From AFP: Mandela is survived by three daughters, 18 grandchildren, nine great-grandchildren and three step-grandchildren. He has four step-children.

Raven Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 (edited) I personally hope he is now at peace. For the last six months or more it has felt like he has been kept alive for the sake of it and it's not felt right to me for a long time.

Ben Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 "Death is something inevitable. When a man has done what he considers to be his duty to his people and his country, he can rest in peace."

Eleonora Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 When I was 10 years old our teacher talked about him in class. He had just won the Nobel for Peace and she thought we children should know about his life, his experience and his achivements. That day I decided he was my hero and I decided the guidelines a person should follow to be considered a hero. Mandela was a hero, an inspiration, a guide. I missi him. May he rest in peace.
