“I have walked that long road to freedom. I have tried not to falter;

I have made missteps along the way.

But I have discovered the secret

that after climbing a great hill,

one only finds that there are many more hills to climb.

I have taken a moment here to rest,

to steal a view of the glorious vista that surrounds me,

to look back on the distance I have come.

But I can rest only for a moment,

for with freedom comes responsibilities,

and I dare not linger,

for my long walk is not ended.” - Nelson Mandela

“The Call of death is a call

of love. Death can be sweet

if we answer it in the affirmative,

if we accept it as one of the

great eternal forms of life

and transformation.” – Herman Hesse
