How did Nelson Mandela find such spirit and such strength?

Question: Whom would you like to interview and what would you ask?

Dalia Mogahed: I would love to interview Nelson Mandela. He’s someone that I admire greatly.

And the question that I would ask him would be, “How and where did he find the amazing spirit and strength to endure so patiently, and for so long, and with so much optimism?” What he did to at the end to find success. “How do we gain inspiration from his perseverance?” That would be the question I would want to know the answer to.
