About This Quote

Bobby Pendragon was an aide to Nelson Mandela after he was released from prison. When Mr. Mandela was first released, he couldn't use his arms or legs very well. The doctors had told him that he wouldn't be able to do the things he needed to do for himself.

He was so frustrated because he couldn't be as independent as he wanted, so he went to Bobby and asked him if there was anything he could do. With this request, Bobby replied with this simple statement, "I'm sorry I hurt your hand...with my face." This has since become one of the most well-known quotes in South Africa. Bobby wasn't saying that Mr.

Mandela's injury was bad luck. He didn't care about it because it wasn't his problem. He just wanted to make sure that Mr.

Mandela knew he still had people who cared about him and would help him out when he needed it.
