About This Quote
Have you ever heard a crazy idea and said to yourself, "That is a crazy idea," only to find that years later it turns out to be a brilliant idea? Crazy ideas are rarely crazy when they are still just ideas. Crazy ideas often turn into amazing ideas when the person who holds the crazy idea is willing to put in the time and effort to make them happen. In this quote, Nelson Mandela points out that the single-minded pursuit of a goal is what is most important about having a crazy idea.
