I'm trying to expand the Simple English Wikipedia. The Mandela article there is still a stub. If anyone feels inspired, work on it or create some of the pages I'm trying to start.
Also, can someone help me with these articles I've started right here on the English Wikipedia?
"Without language, one cannot talk to people and understand them; one cannot share their hopes and aspirations, grasp their history, appreciate their poetry, or savor their songs. I again realized that we were not different people with separate languages; we were one people, with different tongues." -- From Long Walk to Freedom by Nelson Mandela
"If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart." -- also Nelson Mandela
