Madiba


"In a way I had never quite comprehended before, 

I realized the role I could play in court 

and the possibilities before me as a defendant. 

I was the symbol of justice in the court of the oppressor, 

the representative of the great ideals of freedom, fairness 

and democracy in a society that dishonoured those virtues. 

I realized then and there that I could carry on 

the fight even in the fortress of the enemy."
