Gerda Taljaard
“Die Westerse samelewing het so verwyderd geraak van die geestelike sfeer dat hulle die dood beskou as die ergste ding wat die mens kan tref, maar laat ek jou nou sê, Rosa, daar’s veel erger dinge as die dood: eensaamheid, uitsigloosheid, verguising, verwerping, verwaarlosing, ’n lewe sonder liefde …” Hy het gesug. “Die dood is ’n wegkomkans van hierdie sinloosheid, en ’n poort tot ’n nuwe, betekenisvolle bestaan.”
Gerda Taljaard, Die laksman se dogter

Nelson Mandela
“A good head and good heart are always a formidable combination. But when you add to that a literate tongue or pen, then you have something very special.”
Nelson Mandela

Gerda Taljaard
“Dis die opgesmukte weergawe van die waarheid wat mense wil hê, nie harde feite nie.”
Gerda Taljaard, Die laksman se dogter

Nelson Mandela
“No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.”
Nelson Mandela, Long Walk to Freedom

J.K. Rowling
“It is a curious thing, Harry, but perhaps those who are best suited to power are those who have never sought it. Those who, like you, have leadership thrust upon them, and take up the mantle because they must, and find to their own surprise that they wear it well.”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
