About This Quote

The world is constantly changing, and often in unexpected ways. In this quote, Nelson Mandela is saying that no matter which way the world changes, it’s the person who changes with it. He’s talking about the change in you, not in some abstract thing or some circumstance or another person. He’s talking about the change inside of you. The change inside of you is what counts.
