Karen A. BaquiranThe only deadline that concerns me is the day that I die and whether or not I had loved enough while I was here.
About This Quote
Great people such as Nelson Mandela know that the only deadline that concerns them is when they die. They know that they have to love enough while they are alive so that when they die, their lives will be meaningful and not be forgotten. The greats of history put their lives on the line for the good of others. They sacrificed their own desires for the good of others.
They were willing to give everything up just so that others could live better lives than they were living. That is the kind of person which becomes a legend.
