About This Quote
You made a lifetime commitment before God and the world. A silly thing like a divorce doesn’t reverse it. In this quote, Nelson Mandela is reminding the people of South Africa that their decision to enter into a marriage was a life-long decision, an idea that should not be affected by a simple divorce. When you make a commitment to someone, you should never go back on your word, even if that other person does not stay with you through thick and thin.
