Nelson Mandela’s favourite poem was INVICTUS by William Ernest Henley Out of the night that covers me… …black as the pit from pole to pole WELCOME ROBBENEILAND WELKOM I thank whatever gods may be… …for my unconquerable soul. In the fell clutch of circumstance… …I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeonings of chance… …my head is bloody, but unbowed. Beyond this place… Of wrath… And tears… …Looms but the horror of the shade. And yet the menace of the years… …finds and shall find me unafraid. THE SUN MANDELA’S 27-YEAR ORDEAL TO END City Press MANDELA GOES FREE TODAY HERALD NEWS FREE AT LAST! It matters not how straight the gate… …how charged with punishments the scroll. I am the master of my fate… …I am the captain of my soul. Nelson Mandela 1918 - 2013
