My father wouldn't get us a TV, he wouldn't allow a TV in the house.

The fact my relationship with my son is so good makes me forgiving of my father and also appreciative.

As a father now, I wouldn't do what my dad did, because it left me feeling emotionally unstable as a kid. But he didn't do the things he did out of selfishness or malice.

I'm constantly in conflict with things. And it is because of my past and my upbringing and the journey that I've been on.

To be the father of a nation is a great honor, but to be the father of a family is a greater joy.

Apart from life, a strong constitution, and an abiding connection to the Thembu royal house, the only thing my father bestowed upon me at birth was a name, Rolihlahla.
