About This Quote

If you don't know the kind of person I amand I don't know the kind of person you are, a pattern that others made may prevail in the worldand following the wrong god home we may miss our star. In this quote, Winnie Mandela is talking about how two people can be friends and still not know what the other is like. This may lead to a pattern that they made that will prevail in the world and that will end up leading them astray. They will miss out on their star, their real star.
