The Nelson Mandela Foundation has released an app with quotes sourced from his autobiography.
Former South African President and anti-apartheid icon Nelson Mandela's often-quoted words of wisdom will now be available through a special mobile app.
The app, developed by the Nelson Mandela Foundation, is available in two formats - a free, lite version and a paid-for premium version. The lite version sends you a daily quote from one of the world's most inspirational moral leaders. The premium version grants subscribers access to a database of thousands of Mandela's quotes ranging from the value of children and importance of education through to reflections on forgiveness to condemnations of injustice and discrimination, in addition to getting the quote of the day. Both versions are available on the Android and IOS platforms.
The quotes have been drawn from 'Nelson Mandela by Himself: The Authorised Book of Quotations', published in 2011, which was co-edited by Nelson Mandela Foundation CEO Sello Hatang and senior researcher Sahm Venter. Neeran Naidoo, Communications Director of the Nelson Mandela Foundation, said Nelson Mandela was, and still is, an inspiration to all, not only for his charismatic personality, motivational leadership and moral authority, but also for his intellect. "Nelson Mandela's writings and words are timeless and resonate around the world. We have made it easy to access the quote from the palm of your hand, wherever you may be.The app ensures that his words will be documented to serve as an inspiration to all generations, now and into the future," he added.
Naidoo said the quotes have been drawn from Mandela's official papers, speeches, recorded interviews, letters, diary extracts and impromptu remarks over a period of 63 years. Mandela, who became South Africa's first black president after the first all-race polls in 1994, died on December 5, 2013 at the age of 95 after battling a protracted illness.
