Nelson Mandela was once quoted to say ‘Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world. For to be free is not merely to cast off one’s chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others. Do not judge me by my successes; judge me by how many times I fell and got back up again’.
