About This Quote

Let no one ever intimidate you, you are standing on no one's ground. But again, some have claimed the earth as their own and usurped power from the rest of us. But they are usurpers; power belongs to every one of us. Seek it as much as possible.

There is no shame in that. In fact it's a necessity. Either you have power or you are trampled to death in the stampede to get to the top." This quote is taken from a speech given by Nelson Mandela in 1993 at the opening of the African National Congress (ANC) convention in Bloemfontein, South Africa "I am certain that we will never be able to solve our problems in South Africa through violence and that we will only be able to achieve peace and stability when we embrace peace and make peace with each other."
