“When I was called Doctor, it was like an affirmation of everything that my mother had believed. Because I think that the way I interpret Doctor–it means you are someone who helps humanity in your own way . . . try to find meaning and value beyond what affects the body. I feel I am a Doctor of the Spirit” –Mark Mathabane
“South African youths ignore past; all of apartheid taken for granted, writer says.”
“Strength comes from oppression”–Mark Mathabane (from Atlanta Journal-Constitution)
