More From Nelson Mandela

People have stars, but they aren't the same. for travelers, the stars are guides. for other people, they're nothing but tiny lights. and for still others, for scholars, they're problems... but all those stars are silent stars. you, though, you'll have stars like nobody else... since i'll be laughing on one of them, for you it'll be as if all the stars are laughing. you'll have stars that can laugh!... and it'll be as if i had given you, instead of stars, a lot of tiny bells that know how to laugh.

Integrity is at the heart of commerce in the world in which we live. honesty and integrity comprise the very underpinnings of society.....indeed, the strength and safety of any organization-including the family-lie in the integrity of its members. without personal integrity, there can be no confidence. without confidence, there can be no prospect of permanent success.
Honesty Lying Integrity
Integrity, honesty, and honor may not give immediate rewards or gratification, and they can be life-threatening (for example, being a whistle-blower or turning state's evidence). the absence of integrity, honesty, and honor do not always bring punishment or scorn, and can be life-aggrandizing (connivers and cheats often gain power and wealth). therefore, morality must be its own reward.

The black hole in democracy is integrity. the great unspoken is integrity. when integrity is not first and foremost, it's quite palpable but not visible. it's always there. jazz highlights it because musicians and jazz always represented a high level of integrity.

We look up and we hope the stars look down, we pray that there may be stars for us to follow, stars moving across the heavens and leading us to our destiny, but it's only our vanity. we look at the galaxy and fall in love, but the universe cares less about us than we do about it, and the stars stay in their courses however much we may wish upon them to do otherwise. it's true that if you watch the sky-wheel turn for a while you'll see a meteor fall, flame and die. that's not a star worth following; it's just an unlucky rock. our fates are here on earth. there are no guiding stars.

That luminous part of you that exists beyond personality - your soul, if you will - is as bright and shining as any that has ever been. bright as shakespeare’s, bright as gandhi’s, bright as mother theresa’s. clear away everything that keeps you separate from this secret luminous place. believe it exists, come to know it better, nurture it, share its fruits tirelessly.

I'm not certain, but i have a little gypsy blood in me. and my mother always told me that her grandma could give someone the evil eye, and i'd better not cross her because she had some of that blood in her. mother always believed that she could predict the future, and she had dreams that came true.

~one surprise of motherhood for me was how little control i have. i thought it would be a blissful romance with me at the helm, cuddling this little creature. it's been bittersweet and humbling to let her lead and to not try to be perfect myself.~

There was no warning, not even a knock. the door flew open, and he forgot his present aches and pains in anticipation of what lay in store. the figure that stood in the door was not that of an enemy. it was worse. it was his mother.
