About This Quote
Nelson Mandela said, “Delusional or not, maybe if I believe in a better world with enough conviction, and convince others to believe it as well, then it will be real.” Today, people are often divided into two groups: those who believe in something and want to make it happen, and those who don't care about the world they live in. The first group tries to make the world a better place by trying to make a difference. They don't give up when it seems like the entire world is against them. This group of people can be felt all around us; they are fighting for the rights of poor people around the world, for peace in the Middle East, for equality for women everywhere, and many others. Nelson Mandela's words remind us that it doesn't matter what we do or how much we try to help other people out; what matters is that we do what we can.
