The world may never see another man of his calibre, but because of great men such as he, we hopefully will never need to

A truly great man, a very sad loss, but an amazing legacy

Such a loss. A great man from whom we can all learn so much. RIP.

[AstralTraveller]

A very sad day to be mourned but also a great and full life to be celebrated. He was one of my few living heros. A man who earned his place under the banners, his name will live on.

RIP Nelson Mandela, I have no words ..

Great heros don't look for the resulting adulation. Instead they stare down fear, adversity & personal pain, & in their actions inspire others. Nelson, we mourn your leaving our mortal world, & celebrate your courage.

the movie "The Power of One" comes to mind. I know it's not about Mr Mandela, but I've always seen it as a movie that what he was all about.

he had a good innings, .. least he wasn't assassinated. A truly inspirational person for what he did for his country, especially after what his country did to him.

RIP

Truely, A shining light has gone out.
There is no comparable person in the world left.
Sadly missed but will not be forgotten

[BlackWidow]

Truly the Worlds greatest leader. One who led by example. A Man who truly understood that we are Mankind sharing this Earth together as Brothers and Sisters. We are all better off for having him and he has left a mark of hope for peace forever. His flame has gone out, but his light will travel on. Rest in peace Nelson Mandela.
