Do a Good Deed for Mandela Day

Wednesday, July 18, 2012 1:19:16 PM

Today is Nelson Mandela's birthday: the South African leader turns 94!

To mark Mandela Day, as the 18th of July has become known, people around the world are encouraged to do a good deed or perform some service for others. Giving 67 minutes of your time is a symbolic tribute to the 67 years Nelson Mandela devoted to campaigning for human rights.

One of Opera's partners in Africa, MTN is doing its part for Mandela Day, by facilitating people writing birthday messages for Mr. Mandela, or making pledges to do good deeds for others. These contributions will be compiled into a book by MTN, which will then be given to Mr Mandela as a birthday gift. You can add your thoughts to this book by going to MTN's website.

Happy Mandela Day!

A great man ... No existe probablemente en la política de nuestro tiempo una figura más popular, admirada y universalmente respetada que el sudafricano Nelson Mandela, icono de la lucha contra el apartheid.

Frases de Nelson Mandela:

1-Después de escalar una gran colina, uno se encuentra sólo con que hay muchas más colinas que escalar.

2-Aprendí que el coraje no era la ausencia de miedo, sino el triunfo sobre él. El valiente no es quien no siente miedo, sino aquel que conquista ese miedo.

3_Si quieres hacer las paces con tu enemigo, tienes que trabajar con tu enemigo. Entonces él se vuelve tu compañero.

4-La educación es el arma más poderosa que puedes usar para cambiar el mundo.
