n Mandela and Mahatma Gandhi were imprisoned for many years. Yet, while in
prison they both held the belief that that would see a victory one day. Nelson Mandela
never gave up the knowing that he would be President of South Africa one day. Mahatma
Gandhi always held the thought, that no matter what, his mission to free his country from
the English was worth giving his life for. Both these men survived being imprisoned in tact
– and both their beliefs became a powerful and long lasting historical reality.
