More From Nelson Mandela

Usually you just use these words: "i give you my, i make this commitment to you, i honor this idea between us." for me, commitment boils down to honor. because you make a commitment to protect our environment, you make a commitment to species preservation, you make a commitment to stop things like human trafficking. you make a commitment to stop smoking, to eat better. typically, something that is positive. a positive notion of honor.

I'm not sure there can be loving without commitment, although commitment takes all kinds of forms, and there can be commitment for the moment as well as commitment for all time. the kind that is essential for loving marriages - and love affairs, as well - is a commitment to preserving the essential quality of your partner's soul, adding to them as a person rather than taking away.

Humans are built for endurance, not speed. we're awful sprinters compared to every other animal. we try to run our races as if they were speed races, but they are not. they're endurance races. even a marathon, the way it's run now, it's not an endurance contest.

In christ we see the strength of achievement, and the strength of endurance. he moved with a calm majesty, like the sun. the bloody sweat, and the crown of thorns, and the cross, were full in his eyes; but he was obedient unto death. in his perfect self-sacrifice we see the perfection of strength; in the love that prompted it we see the perfection of beauty. this combination of self-sacrifice and love must be commenced in every christian; and when it shall be in its spirit complete in him, then will he also be perfect in strength and beauty.
Christian Eye Sacrifice

In the end it all comes down to talent. you can talk all you want about intangibles, i just don't know what that means. talent makes winners, not intangibles. can nice guys win? sure, nice guys can win - if they're nice guys with a lot of talent. nice guys with a little talent finish fourth, and nice guys with no talent finish last.

In the military i could exercise the power of being automatically respected because of the medals on my chest, not because i had done anything right at the moment to earn that respect. this is pretty nice. it's also a psychological trap that can stop one's growth and allow one to get away with just plain bad behavior.

I did several shows with jimi hendrix, that's when i got to know him better, i knew of him, i met him [when he was playing] with little richard... and he was kind of quiet, shy, he didn't open up too much, but there were questions as we all ask each other. you know, "how do you do this" and "why do you do that..." we had very small discussions on things like that. and he was very polite, i thought [he was] a very nice guy.
