今日，曼德拉先生逝世，致敬，走好！又一个伟人离我们而去了！

曼德拉先生是我很尊敬的几位伟人之一：华盛顿，马丁路德金，曼德拉，周恩来。

拉斯维加斯以赌场(Casino)闻名世界，其中有个赌场叫Mandelay Bay，不知道是否和曼德拉先生有关。

第二，第一次在美国过曼德拉国际日节日，放假。

曼德拉的自传。我看过曼德拉的电影，自己从Clark County图书馆，借的CD。看的泪流满面。

1.
The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.

If you want to make peace with your enemy, you have to work with your enemy. Then he becomes your partner.
若想与敌和平共处，就要与敌并肩作战。敌亦将为友。
6.
I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.
我懂得了，勇气不是没有恐惧，而是战胜恐惧。勇者不是感觉不到害怕的人，而是克服自身恐惧的人。
7.
A nation should not be judged by how it treats its highest citizens but its lowest ones.
评判一个国家不应看它如何对待地位最高的民众，而是看它如何对待穷人或一无所有的人。
8.
No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.
没有人生来就因为皮肤颜色、出生地或宗教信仰去恨另一个人。恨需要学习，既然人们能够学会恨，那么同样可以教会他们爱。爱比恨更容易走进人类的内心。
9.
If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart.
如果你用一个人听得懂的语言与他交流，他会记在脑子里；如果你用他自己的语言与他交流，他会记在心里。

As I walked out the door toward the gate that would lead to my freedom, I knew if I didn't leave my bitterness and hatred behind, I'd still be in prison.
当我走出囚室迈向通往自由的大门时，我已明了：自己若不能把痛苦与怨恨留在身后，那么其实我仍在狱中。
