The world needs more Mandelas.   If anyone deserves to rest peacefully, he sure does.

He indeed had a good run...

Too few of his caliber.

He stands tall as a leader.  His lack of malice, his understanding of the need for reconciliation rather than vengeance gave him the greatest authority of all.  Moral authority.

Wisdom and decency so rarely found in such measure. 

A source of great inspiration and hope, the likes of which the world needs more of.

He has had some equals in history...not many.

Ghandi and Mother Theresa come to mind...

and perhaps Martin Luther King.

Nothing like the sound of rushing water to welcome you home. [bang]



It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.
