Nelson Mandela's Favorite Poem



Hey All,

One of my new favorite web sites, Zen Pencils, recently honored Nelson Mandela's legacy with a cartoon depiction of Mandela's favorite poem, "Invictus," by William Ernest Henley. First published in 1875, the poem motivated Mandela and kept his spirits up during his 27 years in prison, and he would often recite it to his fellow inmates. Check it out using the links.
