About This Quote

When we grow up we tend to be surrounded by people who are like us and we learn from them. We become influenced by their likes and dislikes. We may even take it as a role model that we have to be just like them. However, the most important people in our lives are those who teach us how to be ourselves.

Nelson Mandela chose to surround himself with women who he thought were intelligent and impressive. He enjoyed the company of women who could inspire him and allow him to learn from their experiences. In doing so, he chose not only an extraordinary life, but a life that has lessons for all of us.
