Inscriptions
Dr. Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela " I have walked that long road to freedom. I have tried not to falter; I have discovered the secret that after climbing a great hill, on only finds that there are many more hills to climb. I have taken a moment here to rest, to steal a view of the glorious vista that surrounds me , to look back on the distance I have come. But, I can only rest for a moment for with freedom comes responsibilities and I dare not linger for my long walk to freedom has not ended". From long walk to Freedom, 1994. From the people of the free state province " Thank You Madiba for being a Symbol of hope, Nation building and a brighter Future"
