"During the many years of incarceration on
Robben Island, we often looked across Table
Bay at the magnificent silhouette of Table
Mountain. To us… Table Mountain was a
beacon of hope. It represented the mainland
to which we knew we would one day return”
– Nelson Mandela, 1998
Honouring President Nelson Mandela
