Quote from Nelson Mandela

21.”After one has been in prison, it is the small things that one appreciates: being able to take a walk whenever one wants, going into a shop and buying a newspaper, speaking or choosing to remain silent. The simple act of being able to control one’s person.”
22.”Let freedom reign. The sun never set on so glorious a human achievement.”
