For to be free is not merely to cast off one's chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.
Nelson Mandela
"During my lifetime I have dedicated myself to this struggle of the African people, I have fought against white domination, and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the ideal of a democratic and free society in which all persons live together in harmony and with equal opportunities. It is an ideal which I hope to live for and to achieve. But if it needs be it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die". Nelson mandella to the Apartied courts

A seeker went to ask a sage for guidance on the Sufi way.
The sage counseled,
"if you have never trodden the path of love, go away and fall in love;
then come back and see us
================================================
I don't need
a companion who is
nasty and sour.
The one who is
like a grave,
dark, depressing and bitter.
A sweetheart is a mirror,
a friend, a delicious cake.
It isn't worth spending
an hour with anyone else.
A companion who is
in love only with the self
has five distinct characters:
Stone hearted,
Unsure of every step,
Lazy and Disinterested,
Keeping a poisonous face.
The more this companion waits around
the more bitter everything will get,
just like a vinegar
getting more sour with time.
Enough is said about
sour and bitter faces.
A heart filled with desire for
sweetness and tender souls
must not waste itself with unsavory matters.

After fresh rain on the empty mountain
comes evening and the cold of autumn.
The full moon burns through the pines.
A brook transparent over the stones.
Bamboo trees crackle as washerwomen go home
and lotus flowers sway as fisherman's boat slips downriver.
Though the fresh smell of grass is gone,
a prince is happy in these hills.
