		<description><![CDATA[One of my very generous sisters-in-law gave me a volume of Nelson Mandela quotations for Christmas. It&#8217;s astonishing how much wisdom about the big issues of life he expressed over the years — and with such eloquence and elegance of thought. Thinking about the decades of protest at Waitangi, and the enormous progress towards reconciliation [...]]]></description>

I notice today it is #1 on iTunes. That&#8217;s remarkable, given his longevity and the time in the wilderness and the shallow &#8216;music to slash your wrists by&#8217; blurb.
